In most developed countries of the West, the share of intelligent buildings is nearly 50%; in our country it is not yet one tenth - there is still room for development. Smart buildings are part of the world's major cities such as New York, Paris or London, but new cities are emerging, such as Masdar in the United Arab Emirates.
Smart buildings save energy, protect our health and safety. They use a combination of all available elements that can be managed and controlled. For security, for example, they take care of the entrance systems together with the security cameras, which can be monitored remotely with the help of a smartphone. Energy saving and efficiency in turn provide an effective combination of control for heating, air conditioning and other functions. Simply put, smart buildings improve the quality of life and are also environmentally friendly.

Did you know that every fourth driver in the city is looking for a parking space? However, you can park your car sensibly, simply and economically. Why go around the block several times looking for a parking space? It is much easier to focus on vacancies.
The ground-sensing parking sensors provide up-to-date information on the availability of parking spaces. They are displayed on the information boards. The boards give instructions to the drivers and direct them to the free space. Their application is invaluable in places for people with disabilities. The system also helps users to pay for parking more easily.
Intelligent parking systems not only show instantly free spaces, but also valuable data on city traffic management. For drivers, they bring significantly more comfort, save a lot of time and nerves. Analyzing these data, cities are more efficient in processing or planning their construction.
By analyzing the collected data, the city processes parking spaces more efficiently, can strategically plan where to build them and reduce the required number of parking spaces. There are also significant environmental benefits.
Smart street lamps can adjust brightness and dimming depending on the weather and environmental conditions, which together with the use of LED light sources contribute significantly to energy savings and environmental protection.
The lamps communicate quickly and easily with the central control in case of failure; in addition, they can be effectively controlled remotely.
They can also perform additional functions - we can connect weather stations, emergency buttons, various sensors or Wi-Fi signals to public lighting poles, thus helping to increase the comfort, awareness and especially safety on the streets of the intelligent city.
