Solar Wi-Fi Streetlight
The StarSight system provides a series of pylons that use solar panels to power streetlamps, a Wi-Fi box for wireless internet access, and if desired, closed-circuit TVs for security surveillance. The result : an integrated system of electricity and communication, plus better street lighting, which has been shown to help reduce crime.
