Dust Networks®, the leader in intelligent wireless sensor network solutions, today announced that Streetline, Inc., the leading global provider of smart parking solutions for cities, airports, universities, private garages and consumers, has selected Dust Networks as its wireless sensor networking technology provider. The Dust Networks SmartMesh® network supports a variety of Streetline’s sensor-enabled mobile and web-based smart parking solutions due to its long battery life, reliability and robust scalability.
“Dust Network’s ultra-low-power SmartMesh products allow us to cost effectively deploy sensors anywhere in the urban environment, especially in places where power is not readily available,” said Zia Yusuf, president and CEO of Streetline. “Combining Streetline's patented sensor-based applications with Dust mesh technology allows us to deliver low-cost and high reliability solutions to our customers.”
“We are very excited about partnering with Streetline,” said Joy Weiss, president and CEO of Dust Networks. “The pioneering work Streetline has done in smart parking is already making cities greener and reducing traffic congestion in major urban areas. Major efficiencies will be realized as more and more wireless sensor data is collected and fed into Streetline’s systems to make that information actionable.”
Case Study:
SUMMARY
Dust Networks wireless mesh network solution enables Streetline Networks to reliably gather the real-time status (occupied, empty or expired) of municipal metered parking spots, and use that data to reduce traffic congestion. Even in the harsh and unpredictable environment of a city street, Dust Networks ultra low power sensor nodes provide years of maintenance-free operation.
CHALLENGE
Streetline needed a wireless networking solution robust enough to function in harsh
and dynamic street conditions, one that could be large and dense, and that could run for years without changing the batteries.
SOLUTION
Dust Networks SmartMesh products, with ultra low power 802.15.4 nodes and advanced Network Management, create intelligent, auto-forming and self-healing mesh networks able to run for years on two AA batteries. SmartMesh provides the robust and reliable wireless mesh network Streetline needs.
