Urban Data Platform × Edge AI Integration

On-site readings of urban change loop back as urban services.

Core infrastructure for the hyper-connected smart city — combining urban data, AR, and on-device AI.

On-site readings of urban change loop back into urban services. Smart-glasses and mobile sensors collect pedestrian-view data; on-device first-pass analysis links into the urban data hub; results return as AR guidance and operations dashboards.

— Technical Intent

On-site readings of urban change return as urban services.

The core is understanding the city through mobile edge devices. Smart-glasses collect pedestrian-view street and building data and analyze on-device.

— Architecture · 6 layers

Architecture

  • 01 · Device

    Mobile Edge Device

    Smart-glass with camera, LiDAR, and IMU combined.

  • 02 · Inference

    On-Device AI

    Run object detection, position estimation, event summarization on-site.

  • 03 · Transfer

    5G / Wi-Fi / LEO Path

    Ground network by default, satellite as fallback.

  • 04 · Broker

    NGSI-LD Context Broker

    Translate edge events into Linked Data.

  • 05 · Hub

    Urban Data Hub

    Integrate fixed IoT, public data, and mobile sensor data.

  • 06 · Service

    AR City Service

    Extend to AR HUD, city guidance, and safety info.

— Flow · 5 steps

Operating flow

  1. Step 01

    Field Sensing

    Smart-glasses collect location, gaze, and object data.

  2. Step 02

    Edge Summarization

    On-device AI summarizes raw data into events.

  3. Step 03

    Context Update

    The Context Broker converts events into NGSI-LD.

  4. Step 04

    City Analytics

    The Urban Data Hub combines fixed and mobile data.

  5. Step 05

    AR Feedback

    Analytics feed back as AR guidance and safety alerts.

— Operating Principles

Validation reliability for hyper-connected smart cities

  • Latency-Aware Edge

    On-site decisions on-device; servers handle verification.

  • Privacy by Design

    Minimize video transfer; anonymize; device authentication baked in.

  • Standards Integration

    NGSI-LD ensures interoperability with the urban data hub.

  • Living Lab Service

    Extends to living-lab services for tourism, transport, safety, welfare.
