Abstract

Rapid urbanization is introducing a variety of challenges for municipalities. Technologically-enabled ‘Smart Cities’ are rising to meet these needs, which include smarter sustainability, cybersecurity, transportation, waste management, energy efficiency, education, among many other areas, all toward enhancing the quality of life of citizens. These cities leverage the capabilities of Internet of Things (IoT) technology and the service economy to infuse sensing and information delivery into everyday life through the power of data analytics and artificial intelligence. However, the size of a city and its population make it difficult to evaluate smart solutions. In this work, the ‘Smart Stadium’ is proposed as a testbed to trial Smart City technologies in an environment small enough to facilitate user trials yet large enough to produce scalable outcomes. Our previous proof-of-concepts are summarized to highlight the potential of this approach. We also present a more recent project on accessibility and inclusion using virtual reality with preliminary results.

智能体育场作为智能城市的试验台:丰富球迷体验，提高可达性

快速城市化给市政当局带来了各种各样的挑战。技术支持的“智慧城市”正在兴起，以满足这些需求，其中包括更智能的可持续性、网络安全、交通、废物管理、能源效率、教育等许多其他领域，所有这些都是为了提高公民的生活质量。这些城市利用物联网(IoT)技术和服务经济的能力，通过数据分析和人工智能的力量，将传感和信息传递融入日常生活。然而，城市的规模和人口使得评估智能解决方案变得困难。在这项工作中，“智能体育场”被提议作为一个测试平台，在一个足够小的环境中试验智能城市技术，以促进用户试验，但又足够大，以产生可扩展的结果。我们对前面的概念验证进行了总结，以突出该方法的潜力。我们还介绍了最近一个关于使用虚拟现实的可访问性和包容性的项目，并取得了初步成果。
