Technology to improve city lives in chicago
The ambitious project named ‘Array of things’ by Mayor Rahm Emanuel aims to revamp Chicago as the most data-driven government of the world by devising energy-efficient solutions to address the frequent urban problems. Argonne National Laboratory, the University of Chicago and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago have developed 14-inch-high cylinders with sensors and cameras to collect data and give more insight to the recurrent urban headaches. Such moves will propel the city to pace up with the technology biggies like Barcelona, Copenhagen, London and Singapore.
