Smart urban street furniture are a very tangible manifestation of the Smart City; helping to increase the attractiveness of public spaces by providing public service information, and connectivity, while at the same time enabling the collection of important environmental data.
Smart benches were installed in a number of spots across the Dublin region bringing the future of smart technology to our streets and parks. From Balbriggan to the Docklands, to Sandyford and Dun-Laoghaire Town, the benches are a visible expression of Dublin’s Smart City status, as we deploy new and exciting technologies that seek to improve quality of life in the region.
With Solar panels, phone charging ports, Wi-Fi and digital advertising space, the benches offer a range of digital capabilities to both the public and the local authorities. Across the region, different models have been sourced, with those in Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council even providing electric sockets for charging e-bikes along with bike repair tools.
Another example of smart furniture in our city region includes the deployment of “Bikekeep” – a smart bike locking system in Dublin’s Docklands. This smart locking system provides improved security for bicycle storage in the city.
