As technology innovations drives forward, it becomes more and more part of our everyday lives. From simple smart phone apps to pay our electric bills, to autonomous cars driving us to the airport. Infrastructure, mobility, healthcare, and public safety are all industries being disrupted by technology - but how can we utilize new technologies to solve problems in our very own city. By working together to highlight challenges for citizens and the city, we're able to experiment and propose the technologies that work for Denton. By learning from the project outcomes of other smart city initiatives, we're able to provide benefits and minimize risks for the citizens of Denton.
Below you'll find a list of current or potential projects that are possible with this smart city initiative. What's your idea?
