Smart technology has undergone something of a revolution in recent years. The internet-of-things changeover has already come to influence countless aspects of American life, affecting food consumption, health, travel, and the workplace - and it hasn’t even really started yet.
With so many changes on the horizon, one of the areas that is seeing the greatest transition is transportation. Virtually every form of regular transportation - automobiles, buses, trains, subway systems, and airplanes - have all implemented some form of automated technology.
Over the course of the summit, your discussions about the current and future state of
smart mobility technology in cities will include:
- Learning about the extensive research and development efforts taking place within the nation's cities, and how these initiatives are substantially improving the quality of life of city-dwellers.
- Debating such topics as: the identification of user-centered mobility services; the implementation of integrated and intelligence transport networks that will sense demand and monitor the health of physical assets; and the institution of cognitive technology that will benefit automation and safety;
- Connecting with various vendors from around the country;
- Networking with a variety of public- and private-sector figures to compare best practices;
- Exploring the latest in smart technology, IT solutions, and acquisition approaches that will further city and state digitization efforts;
- Discussing the next steps in the adoption of smart technologies by American metropolitan areas - how can these technologies be integrated while also observing safety and automation requirements?
