The company Diseño Inteligente Global presented in Leon, Guanajuato their new “Intelligent Tree”, which they seek to install throughout the city thinking about the future.
The presentation of the “Intelligent Tree” in operation was within Calzado Brantano business center.
The Intelligent Tree is a design that seeks to be installed in public areas and open spaces, mainly in parts of the city where there is a lack of technological infrastructure.
The main objective is to integrate in a single project the provision of lighting and wireless Internet access through the autonomous generation of renewable energy.
The “Forest of Light” project consists of “trees” made of a metal structure covered with steel sheets that form a geometric and abstract shape (of a “futurist” tree).
Also, this piece of technological furniture has an island system of solar panels located in strategic areas of the structure.
The “Intelligent Tree” captures solar energy and reflects it throug the night time, serving as a street lamp, as well as wireless Internet modem, in a range of up to 180 meters perimeter.
