29. FASTPRK - Parking Sensors (30) - Worldsensing
When we thought that the system was operative we
tested it in the 22@Urban Lab. Testing in real-life
environments allowed us to improve aspects that
we couldn't even think of in the lab. The Urban Lab
has been our best laboratory.

30. SIIUR - LED Lighting Pilot (12) - Arelsa, Circuitor,
Santa&Cole, e-Control, Prysmian, Semal
The SIIUR experience allowed us the development
of the SmartTower, a new family of electrical boxes
for Smart Cities.

Because of the pilot and the experience acquired
in the Urban Lab, Eindhoven chose SIIUR for
environmentally sustainable city lighting in
one of the main districts of the city.
