It works by mounting a sensor onto lighting infrastructure which monitors and controls the lights. The sensor then connects to the lighting network wirelessly and allows centralised management and control of lighting assets

Waste management has been relatively static over the past 50 years, with manual systems and regular everyday waste collection schedules dominating the market. But the cycle had been broken over the past decade when smart solutions, IoT devices and cloud services came into play. The truth is, waste collection relies on fixed schedules, ignoring the real needs and demands. It is no secret that waste collection trucks constantly circle around

You may wonder how smart waste management actually works and what it really means. It’s important to note that there are three key technologies that are involved in smart waste management.

These days more than half of the world’s population live in the cities and this number is constantly growing. This urban expansion brings a big challenge in managing resources and infrastructure; however, process automation and optimisation of cities could hold the answer by using resources more efficiently to cater for the growth. The future comes not only with new questions

Implementing smart city solutions have a significant impact on our society, economy, and of course the broader environment. For example, smart waste can reduce operating costs, and public Wi-Fi enables citizens to stay connected and has a positive impact on tourism, both of which contribute to the overall efficiency of a local government area. But
