Why is New Zealand Leaning Towards Smart Cities?

In the 21st century, where complex technology and consistent advancement are commonplace, our cities’ convergence with smart living innovations are clearly inevitable. New Zealanders’ desire to become and remain connected via online mediums has become insatiable, and our tenacity to adopt new digital trends and attractions is unwavering. In just three years, the average person is expected to interact with connected devices nearly 4,800 times a day. The current trends and predictive statistics deliver a clear message: our country needs cities equipped to accommodate and adapt to the myriad of technological innovations that we will indeed adopt. Our country needs smart cities.

How often do you see rubbish bins overflowing in the street? Too often. Using our Smart Bin, we can compact waste up to 7 times using power generated from the sun (solar), then send an alert when it's full. What does this mean for the planet? 7 times as much rubbish into each bin - 7 times fewer collections - 7 times less fuel consumed -7 times less energy required - 7 times as much money saved! Awesome.

It was an awesome experience down in Queenstown last week for the annual Signals NZ User Groups (SNUG) conference. Some cool products on show and grateful for the opportunity to present our new Smart Radar technology from Smart Micro.

A short clip showing our recent install of Smart Radar alongside our associate company - Traffic Systems Ltd. The devices are located at the intersection of Victoria & Halsey Street in Aucklands CBD.

Detection, collection and classification all in one product! With this new technology we are able to offer valuable insight as to performance of intersections and classify trajectory groups.

We are able to classify and count pedestrians, cars, trucks, buses, vans, cyclists etc. etc. We are also able to read and report average speeds and flow across various time sets. Just a couple of the amazing features of our radars!

See if you can spot them next time you drive past, they are very discreet!

What could a strawberry have to do with a Smart City. Stay tuned to find out.

Our associate company Traffic Systems Ltd have recently installed two units of our premium model from smartmicro at Auckland Airport. With this application we are moving away from the days of manual loop cutting and showing how advanced radar technology is the future of . These radars not only integrate directly into the existing traffic signal controller, but also have the ability to classify trajectory groups.

smartmicro was also chosen for a trial in the CBD at the intersection of Victoria/Halsey Street. The intersection had recently been paved and choosing this advanced radar technology negated the need to cut loops, immediately increasing the life of the pavement.

Just one of the beauties behind this solution is in that we are no longer required to dig up the road to install new loop infrastructure. This in turn saves the integrity of the pavement, and saves our countries and . This will also see our government save in cost of labour!
