Schréder and 5G make street lighting smarter

The arrival of 5G ushered in an era of faster, smarter and more efficient connectivity, even in sectors where this is perhaps less obvious. To demonstrate how 5G can improve everyday processes, Orange Business recently opened its third 5G Lab in Belgium.

Orange 5G Lab in Brussels: experience the potential of 5G firsthand

Making 5G tangible, allowing companies to test it and taking the step towards practical applications together: that’s the aim of Orange Business’s 5G Labs. After Antwerp and Liège, there is now also a 5G Lab in Brussels. We work with companies to develop innovative applications so everyone can experience the potential of 5G up close.  

In Brussels, you can discover seven practical case studies in four domains: healthcare, safety, smart buildings and smart cities. One of these is briefly highlighted here: SHUFFLE by Schréder.

Case study: Schréder and 5G make street lighting smarter

The team at Schréder believed that even something as ordinary as street lighting could always be smarter. With SHUFFLE, the company developed an intelligent, modular lamppost that can not only be controlled remotely but is also equipped with cameras, speakers and even charging points. Combined with 5G, Schréder is contributing to ever smarter cities.

Thanks to SHUFFLE’s modular design, other 5G applications can be integrated into the lampposts. For example, ASAsense uses sound detection to enhance urban safety, while Phoenix AI makes camera surveillance smarter.
