A first batch of V2X nodes is making its way into the field!
Specifically, it is going to our 5GoIng Smart City Boxes [1], which we have already set up at the IN-Campus [2] in Ingolstadt. They form the heart of the system and handle 5G mobile communications, V2X functionality and the control and monitoring of our solar-powered lighting boxes.
The boxes are approx. 1x2x1 m in size and have solar panels and lighting elements that are directed at the nearby roadway. This allows us to trigger various lighting scenarios on command - for example, if two road users are approaching at dangerous speed at the traffic circle.

Attached: 4 images Smart City Boxes in the wild! In beautiful and sunny weather, we set up the first four SmartCity Boxes on the Digitales Testfeld "ErsteMeile" (test field "FirstMile") in Ingolstadt, π©πͺ . We developed the boxes as part of the #5GoIng project and improved them in several iterations. They are completely energy self-sufficient and designed to visually warn vulnerable road users using a special feature of the 5G technology. For this to work reliably, tests are still required and planned with the rest of the infrastructure of the test field. #technology #startups #innovation #teamzero #5g #cellular #electronics #solar #solarPower #greenEnergy #ingolstadt
