Sensorization: Smart Cities

  INTRODUCTION 

SEMI MEMS and Sensors Industry Group has created a Sensor Solutions Partnership (SSP) program with its member companies to connect sensor manufacturers with end customers. The initial focus of the SSP program is on Smart Cities. Smart Cities require numerous sensor types, and the market for these sensors is large ($84B) and predicted to grow by about 25% CAGR between 2000 and 2027. In this free webinar series, we cover the Sensorization of Smart Cities which will describe how different sensor technologies are being deployed in transportation, environmental quality, and resources and infrastructure.

 ABSTRACT 

       This first webinar explores the “Smart Cities” concept and how smart mobility will be implemented with a network of sensors sending data to robust computer systems. SEMI MSIG Hall of Famer, Karen Lightman of Carnegie Mellon University’s Metro21 project will kick off the live discussion by describing that a smart city is a “system of systems,” why we need smart cities, the evolution of smart cities, and some smart city projects.

       In the second half of the webinar, Sameer Sharma, Intel’s Global GM (Smart Cities & Transportation) for IOT Solutions, will address the mobility challenges of today and tomorrow with intelligent transportation solutions based on Intel’s advanced MCU technology.
