SUNRISE: Proximity services and technologies for Smart Mobility

ABSTRACT
A research project aimed at providing new services to the citizens, through the integration of proximity technologies and IoT.

Where: italy
Challenge
Proximity technologies and services are assuming a fundamental role in facilitating everyday life: from NFC payment apps, to QR scanning, up to technologies such as Beacon, BLE, RFID, ZigBee, Wi-Fi, etc. SUNRISE is an innovative project born from the fruitful collaboration between companies belonging to the Tuscan area.
Approach
The aim of the project is to create a modular, open ecosystem of proximity services and technologies as well as Location Based Services (LBS), which will be more integrated and advanced, leveraging IoT technologies. Engineering is the coordinator of the project and one of the partners together with: PLANET, LEONET (VAR Group), PROJECT, DATAPOS, CUBIT, LIBEROLOGICO.
