Smart City Expo World Congress 2025
From 4 to 6 November, the Smart City Expo World Congress, the most important international event in the field of smart cities, will be held at Fira de Barcelona. This event has a congress area and an exhibition area where prominent people and organizations involved in the local management of the territories will participate, and where innovative solutions in the field of public policies and technologies for urban management will be shown.
As every year, the Barcelona Provincial Council participates in the SCEWC with a corporate stand, in order to enable the exchange of knowledge and the dissemination of all those projects in the field of innovation and smart territory, both of the Barcelona Provincial Council and of city councils and other local entities that want to participate in it.
Maqueta de ciutat amb sensors
Cada cop hi ha més municipis que instal·len sensors als seus carrers per obtenir dades en temps real. Alguns són molt coneguts com les càmeres lectores de matrícules de vehicles o els detectors que mesuren la contaminació. Aquests aparells transformen el municipi en una autèntica ciutat intel·ligent. A l’estand es va presentar una maqueta interactiva que mostrava alguns dels sensors que s’instal·len a les ciutats gràcies al suport de la Diputació de Barcelona i que ajuden a transformar les ciutats i transformar-les en smart cities de futur.
Avatar d’intel·ligència artificial
La Diputació de Barcelona disposa de moltes línies d’ajut per a la transformació dels municipis en ciutats intel·ligents. A l’estand d’aquest any es va presentar un avatar en forma humana al qual se li podien preguntar sobre aquests ajuts. Era tan fàcil com parlar per un micròfon, preguntar sobre un tema concret i l’avatar responia explicant tots els ajuts que ofereix la Diputació a través del seu Catàleg de Serveis per a digitalitzar aquell àmbit ciutadà.
