BT to test new SOLSUN smart city network technology

2015-10-08 11:17:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) BT will trial new technology that uses connected city street lights to create powerful communications networks. It has partnered with Norwich-based lighting and communications specialist Enlight to examine how street lighting control systems can provide connectivity for emerging 'smart city' applications such as smart parking and smart environmental services. The Sustainable Outdoor Lighting and Sensory Urban Network (SOLSUN) has already attracted interest from Europe, with the City of Budapest government and Budapest University both working closely with the two UK partners. The SOLSUN trial is scheduled to take place in Milton Keynes in January 2016 before a full commercial deployment in Budapest in summer 2016.
