Inventing a self-sustaining street furniture concept

  JCDecaux and ARMOR’s objectives are to overcome the challenge of the energy transition, to be co-players in tomorrow’s sustainable city and to innovate in the area of urban communication methods. The two companies are unveiling a new-concept urban interaction demonstration unit.

JCDecaux and ARMOR will present on 24 January to the Normandy (Secure Electronic Transactions) TES Tech Cluster the proof-of-concept for self-sustaining, interactive, solar-powered street furniture.

Drawing on the knowledge and expertise of the two French groups with international reach, this new concept is a real hub of technological innovation for the benefit of citizens. Equipped with ARMOR’s ASCA brand photovoltaic film in order to be energy self-sustaining, the furniture will include a very-low-energy, interactive screen with a range of possibilities for disseminating information, including a calendar of city events, for polling residents about a given topic, for example. Residents will be able to interact with the screen using their mobile phones.
