Smart Cities
Smart Cities are on the rise. More and more, sensors and networks are connecting our cities to improve efficiency and make a huge difference to a range of sectors. But how will smart cities improve your business and how can you fully utilise smart city technology? Here are some of the projects our academics are working on.
