URBIS PICTUS a look back at the Smart City Fair
“Urbis is a place where not only people from various interest groups of Smart Cities meet, but also experts, manufacturers, importers and exhibitors of various technologies, platforms and equipment. But I think the biggest challenge is for these two groups to understand each other, because municipal representatives are really overwhelmed with a flood of offers that sometimes have nothing to do with Smart City, they're just riding on this wave, ”said Jiří Konečný, CEO and founder of ELKO EP.
As at several previous fairs this year, we have displayed our modular Smart Pole, which can offer up to 17 useful technologies, ranging from wireless mobile charging and contactless card readers, through touch screen information, widescreen camera, smart motion sensors and air quality with its four variations. , Wi-Fi hotspot, up to the minute car charging station. All this with the simple possibility of checking, evaluating the sensed parameters and remote control within the entire smart city network from the dispatching centre
The Smart Pole is just the icing on our innovative solutions for smart cities. There are many other areas such as agriculture, apartments, houses or commercial buildings where our wide range of sensors, actuators and control platforms can also be used. Smart technologies for cities or agriculture are delivered under the brand iNELS Air.
