Extension of Existing Smart Parking Solution
As part of the MoU, the parties will explore the opportunity to extend their existing partnership on the Penang Parking Application that will allow the integration of future IoT technologies such as flood monitoring solutions, air quality monitoring and energy conservation solutions. The current Penang Parking Application is run entirely on a Sigfox network, applied on 36,000 bays across Penang state.
With Penang as pioneers in this space, this initiative will continue the close collaboration with the Penang State Government as the key stakeholder in ensuring that the solutions deployed keep the Rakyat safe and informed, bring savings for the local councils and a consolidated view for better city management.
Both Companies Play Key Role in Achieving Smart City Ambition
Prashant Pathmanaban, CEO of Xperanti, commented “IoT offers possibilities for municipalities to address urban city challenges by supporting decision-making via the detection of key metrics such as parking availability, traffic movement and water levels along with city-wide energy conservation applications through real-time monitoring and data-driven decision-making capabilities. To strengthen the value offering, the solutions deployed will be cost-effective for the local council and, more importantly, keep the Rakyat informed across many areas of public safety and updates via the unified app.”
Xperanti’s collaboration with EdgePoint will enable support for and growth of services in the Penang region, with a focus on intelligent infrastructure, scalability of the business model, and innovation and futureproofing.
