Everyone can enjoy Warsaw

With the rise of the so-called smart cities, visually impaired people can help them live more independently both indoors or in a public space. Equipping a city with internet-connected devices and artificial intelligence can improve services and how they get around, such is the case of Poland’s capital Warsaw,

In this European city the visually impaired are assisted by ‘Virtual Warsaw’, a smart city project in which a network of beacon sensors sends people real-time information about their surroundings to their phone via Bluetooth, including buildings, bus stops and number of arriving trains.

Independence for visually impaired folks

There is also a support system for the visually impaired to feel more independent in public spaces and in the labor market. Trainings, career consultations and internships are just some of the services provided, as well as a helpline to help them navigate the city.

Although still in pilot mode, ‘Virtual Warsaw’ is already increasing the wellbeing for those using it, and governments throughout the world are starting to take notice of such initiatives. Soon, we will see cities implement such technologies for their own and continue to provide their citizens a high-quality lifestyle.

Smart cities are the future

Smart cities are revolutionizing how people live, communicate and interact with their environments. Other example of these cities are Dubai, New York, Singapore and Seoul, and it’s only a matter of time before the list expands all around the world! Wouldn’t you love for your city to be the next smart one?

The whole world will gather on Friday July 24^th, 2020 to witness the opening ceremony for the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics, and this time the goal is to spread a message of environmental sustainability to the world.

Since 2017, the Tokyo Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games collected small electronic devices from all over Japan to produce the Olympic Medals, and in March 2019 the project was finished. All gold, silver and bronze medals are made out A total of 78,985 tons of metals from recycled and used cell phones, laptops, video game consoles, and cameras!

What makes the project special is the public interest and assistance from Japan’s citizens who powered the creation of the roughly 5000 medals for the Games. In total, around 70 pounds of gold, more than 7,000 pounds of silver and almost 5,000 pounds of bronze were gathered from hundreds of local sources.

Local municipal authorities gathered more than 6 million mobile phones from stores across Japan, and more than 78,000 tons of other small electronic devices. These electronic devices were classified, dismantled and then smelted, where the gold, silver and bronze are extracted to create the medals.

The Committee also looks to establish a theme of resourcefulness for the games and contribute to an environmentally friendly and sustainable society by using recycled household and marine plastic to create podiums for the medal ceremonies. Moreover, the metal that isn’t used in the medals will be used for medals in local competitions in the future.
