Smart street lighting adapts to traffic and light conditions. It can use sensors to detect cars/cyclists/pedestrians and automatically adjust lighting levels along their trip.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) to enable the early identification of health issues and tailor a response to minimise community and economic disruption.
An alternative means of conducting waste management and cleaning in stations through robots that spray cleaning chemicals (e.g. hydrogen peroxide) onto surfaces.
A combination of digital solutions and treatment technologies can enable last-mile access to clean water through water kiosks and smart metering.
This use case explores technologies that decrease Scope 1 greenhouse gas emissions from wastewater treatment processes.
Technologies that enable the capture of greasy waste from commercial and industrial facilities to convert into biodiesel.
3D printers can produce components on-site to enable a faster response to maintenance needs, reducing environmental impact from transportation and reducing service downtime.
Digital knowledge platforms that share data and knowledge on-site during construction and maintenance, making it readily accessible to all workers thereby reducing project time while also improving work quality and safety.
Combination of sensors and machine learning to predict timelines and modes of failure for physical and mechanical assets such as pipes, pumps, and motors.
Automated Robot Cranes (ARC) with Artificial Intelligence (AI) to perform tasks autonomously to avoid collisions, accidents and delays during operations.
Automated welding technologies used for pre-fabrication of pipes, tanks and treatment plants to reduce construction costs and project timeframes.
Artificial intelligence (AI) to optimise water and wastewater treatment processes through automated control and/or provision of decision support for plant operators.
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) can be integrated in all stages of infrastructure planning and design to transport users into virtual environments that reveal what designs could look like when constructed and how they would impact upon the existing environment.
Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) can be used to deploy training programs and assist workers in performing asset inspections and maintenance works.
A water height and flood management system enables local authorities to predict flooding and avoid building infrastructure in high risk areas.
Artificial intelligence (AI) that streamlines processes, documents and data in the flow of goods to reduce duplication, automate handshakes, and improve status accuracy.
Developing infrastructure that is sustainable, resilient and inclusive is a complex endeavour and it is even more so in emerging markets.
Private investment in infrastructure through primary market transactions remains low at around US$100 billion per year and has been declining over the past decade according to a new Global Infrastructure Hub (GI Hub) report, Infrastructure Monitor 2020.
COVID-19 is the worst crisis since the Great Depression, and it will take significant innovation on the policy front to recover from this calamity.
Discover three trends in infrastructure design and use that resulted from the pandemic and are likely going to remain relevant to the infrastructure of the future.
