Continental makes Street Lamps Smart
Intelligent street lamps are a key element in the development of safe, clean and smart cities. Continental’s Intelligent Street Lamp simplifies the management of lighting, while monitoring and analyzing environment, traffic and parking information in smart cities.
Using secure connectivity and sensorics, our Intelligent Street Lamp solution enables remote light control as well as adaptive street lighting depending on surrounding traffic participants. It provides advanced features such as remote maintenance, over-the-air updates and performance monitoring, features that allow smart cities and operators to save energy and reduce cost by working more efficiently.
The Intelligent Street Lamp also can provide data for future smart cities. Combining the synergies between the Intelligent Intersection and Intelligent Street Lamp, we can increase safety by detecting critical situations and transferring this information through V2X communication to connected vehicles.By identifying free parking space, the solution can reduce congestion and improve overall traffic flow. Additionally our Intelligent Street Lamp can detect multiple pollution levels like noise and air quality, to improve the quality of life in tomorrow’s cities.
