Watch this webinar OnDemand to discover how edge AI applications are coming to cities and supporting positive outcomes across mobility, lighting, and safety.
Date recorded: Tuesday 1 July 2025
Length: 60 minutes + Q&A
In the ongoing urban AI revolution, edge AI is standing out as a solution that can help cities become more responsive, efficient, and resilient. By enabling real-time data processing directly on devices like cameras, smart poles, and connected street furniture, cities can make faster decisions, reduce data transfer costs, and strengthen privacy – all without relying on constant cloud connectivity.
In this webinar with PNY Technologies, we explore how edge AI is already reshaping core areas of urban operations, providing practical insights for city leaders, technology providers, and urban planners. Together with experts from PNY, A.I. Tech, ATM Barcelona and Kyiv City Council, we focus on three high-impact use cases:
The webinar also discusses implementation strategies, return on investment, and sustainability benefits, with examples from pioneering cities already deploying edge AI today.
Watch now to learn how bringing intelligence to the edge can help your city create safer, smarter, and more sustainable urban environments.
