Innovation Precinct, Wynyard Quarter | Spark NZ
Smart Streets. Smart Cities.
The Innovation Precinct in Wynyard Quarter is Ground Zero for testing the newest smart ‘things’, as Spark partners with Auckland Transport to bring the future faster.
IoT and 5G technology deployed and connected by Spark is enabling AT to pilot new ways of managing assets, resources and services more efficiently.
IoT-connected infrastructure such as Smart Benches, Smart Bins and Smart Lights are in action now, and helping make the city a more enjoyable place to work, play and interact.
These IoT networked devices will make running a much bigger future Auckland more cost-efficient, and environmentally sustainable.
Why AT is partnering with Spark IoT?
Auckland is expected to hit 2.4 million people by 2050. City planners need to experience now – in a real-world environment – how new IoT-connected infrastructure will improve safety, congestion, sustainability and convenience, as the city grows and changes.
Result – IoT is having an impact
The IoT tech deployed at Wynyard Quarter is producing encouraging results. People are enjoying the benefits of connected infrastructure, and planners are getting the quality data they need to make better investment decisions.
Innovation Precinct – Smart Lights
IoT-connected Smart Lights can be dimmed and brightened remotely to reduce energy use.
Innovation Precinct – Smart Benches
Solar-powered Smart Benches have been installed in Wynyard Quarter – some with smartphone, e-bike and scooter charging ports. They are also monitoring their surrounding environment.
Innovation Precinct – Smart Parking
IoT-connected Parking Sensors monitor on-street parking bays and provide AT with visibility of occupancy and usage. They also help improve response to overstaying in real-time.
Innovation Precinct – Smart Bins
IoT-connected sensors detect when rubbish bins are full and need to be serviced, preventing unpleasant and unsightly overflow. They also ensure rubbish trucks are only on the road when needed.
