In the mre than 6,000 years f living in cities, humans have always had t find slutins t prblems cncerning hw they live and wrk, such as sanitatin, transprtatin, crime and envirnmental prtectin. Tday, using cutting-edge technlgies, smart cities can cver them all. We are nw in the era f being “smart”.

After the data cllected is analyzed, the result will be cmmunicated t the decisin-makers, wh will take actin t imprve the quality f city life fr its residents.
Smart city technlgies have already been applied in sme cuntries and cities arund the wrld. Singapre, fr example, has intrduced a wide range f smart technlgies in bth its public and private sectrs since launching its Smart Natin initiative in 2014. T help with the aging ppulatin, it intrduced a digital health system allwing vide cnsultatins as well as wearable devices t mnitr patients.
