Sunderland City Council, GB unveils sensor-based smart plaza
Sunderland City Council has unveiled a sensor-based smart plaza in the heart of its city center, designed to enhance public safety, optimize space usage, and improve the overall urban experience for residents and visitors. The project incorporates advanced IoT sensors embedded in the pavement and infrastructure to monitor foot traffic, environmental conditions, and potential hazards in real-time, allowing for dynamic adjustments to lighting, seating, and accessibility features.
Project Succeeded
Early data from the sensors is already informing city planners on peak usage patterns, helping to reduce congestion and promote sustainable event planning. Looking forward, Sunderland plans to scale this model to other neighborhoods, integrating AI analytics for predictive maintenance and further fostering inclusive, data-driven urban development.
