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, πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ . 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
