MWC 2014: Deutsche Telekom and Pisa start Smart City project



*  Pilot project in Pisa: Parking guide system steers drivers to available parking spaces
*  Smart Stadium offers a more intense fan experience
*  Efficient street lighting saves up to 70 percent of electricity costs


Motorists in Pisa will soon be able to find a parking space more easily. In a pilot project, Deutsche Telekom integrates a number of parking spaces within a sensor-based parking management system in Piazza Carrara in the city center. The cooperation also includes a big data service, which analyzes historical traffic data to optimize the flow of traffic. Deutsche Telekom will present this and other M2M solutions for the Smart City, including remote controlled streetlights and a holistic concept for connected stadiums, at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona (Hall 3, C114).
