Our ZERO Smart City Cube!

The Project:

• Publicly funded research project
• Centered around 5G communication
• Goal: Improve road traffic (Increase efficiency roundabout, test safety measures, integrate Smart City functionality)

The cube:

• Dynamic lighting to increase traffic safety
• Warn vulnerable road users at crossings
• Inform speeding drivers
• First deployed at the First Mile in Ingolstadt
• Energy-self-sufficient via solar power
• Weather and vandalism-proof

The technology:

• Recognition of road users is based on V2X, but can also rely on other sources (e.g. LIDAR)
• Low latency communication with other systems via 5G mobile networks
• Power storage based on Audi second life battery modules
• Built-in roadside unit with 5G and V2X functionality.
