<strong>Smart Devices, Smart Cities</strong>

A city is only as smart as the technology within it. The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the technology landscape, revolutionizing every facet of daily life. Smart devices can collect data on the number of steps we walk to track progress over time, or can adjust the temperature in a home to conserve energy.

A Smart Parking program is a critical component of the smart city framework. Smart technology has the power to maximize your most important assets and accommodate responsible growth by increasing revenue, improving efficiency, and contributing to a more sustainable future. As an industry leader, IPS Group is driving the smart cities initiative with its innovative portfolio of Smart Parking solutions: solar-powered single-space meters, feature-rich multi-space meters, upgrade kits to modernize aging infrastructure, vehicle detection sensors, enforcement and permit management solutions, mobile and in-vehicle payments, and advanced analytics and data management tools.

With its robust Data Management System, IPS is helping cities work smarter, not harder.
