Lidar Ready to Power Smart Cities ApplicationsMay 21, 2019|In Media Coverage|By Albie Jarvis
Lidar sensors, along with communications technologies, are
seen as key enablers of Smart Cities
applications such as traffic management, energy management, intelligent
infrastructure, and more.
Writing in Smart Cities Dive
about how technology can power better, smarter government services, Gil Elba expects
public transit and thoroughfares will be improved by using data to understand
foot traffic and car traffic patterns.
Lidar sensors
provide the accurate, authenticated and visual data needed in Smart Cities
applications. Elba’s article notes how Velodyne lidar will:
“offer intelligence at scale on granular ideas, such as the
safety and location of swingsets or park benches.”
Expect to read more about the role of lidar in powering
Smart Cities applications that aim to improve public services and enhance the
safety and quality of life of citizens.
