Abstract
Off-grid remote power units can provide continuous illumination for safer streets and safer driving that is unaffected by power outages. Thanks to individual lighting control potentially allowing for dimming, blinking, and even color changing, streetlights powered by RPUs can be used as emergency signaling devices, directing traffic during a city evacuation or other emergency. The RPU control and monitoring can be accessed through the cloud, thereby avoiding reliance on local servers.
