If you pay attention to the street view, you will find that some street lights don’t know when they “long” out of cameras, display screens, and solar panels. In addition to providing lighting, they also have functions such as environmental monitoring, wireless network, broadcasting, charging, and parking charges. This multifunctional smart light pole is being widely used in urban construction.
integrated weather station in smart light pole
“Multi-purpose with one pole” is one of the characteristics of smart light poles. Smart light poles are the in-depth practice of new development concepts, especially the concept of sharing. On the basis of traditional lighting functions, street lighting control systems, LED information release , WIFI coverage, video surveillance management, advertising screen broadcast control, real-time monitoring of urban environment, emergency calls, car charging piles, manhole cover monitoring, 4G/5G base stations and other applications in a new generation of smart city infrastructure. Through information perception and big data interaction technology, functions such as intelligent lighting, intelligent transportation, information release, and environmental monitoring can be realized.
Smart street light poles can standardize, organize, sort out and analyze urban noise, air quality, and other data through sensors, with the aim of reducing urban energy consumption, reducing environmental pollution, and eliminating potential safety hazards, thereby realizing the intelligence of the city. For environmental monitoring of smart street lights, SenTec has researched and designed a small ultrasonic integrated weather station that can be installed on smart light poles.

integrated weather station advantages
Compared with the ultrasonic integrated weather station, it is lighter in weight, easy to carry and install, and more convenient to use. It has the characteristics of small size, low power consumption, high integration and high cost performance. It can measure the real-time data of eight elements of rainfall, wind speed, wind direction, temperature and humidity, noise collection, PM2.5 and PM10, and atmospheric pressure at the same time.
SenTec small ultrasonic integrated weather station shell is made of ABS material, which has the characteristics of light weight and UV resistance. The whole machine does not have any moving parts, it is sturdy and durable and has a long service life. No maintenance and field calibration is required for use. It is also widely used in the fields of meteorology, ocean, environment, airport, port, laboratory, industry, agriculture and transportation.
The small ultrasonic integrated weather station has 4 ultrasonic probes. In a windless environment, the ultrasonic wave from each probe reaches the receiving probe at the same time; when there is wind, the wind will affect the ultrasonic wave reaching the receiving probe. By calculating the ultrasonic transmission time difference between the probes, the wind speed and wind direction at that time can be calculated.
In the small ultrasonic integrated weather station, the measurement of rainfall adopts an optical rain gauge, which measures rainfall based on the principle of optical induction, and has multiple built-in optical probes to achieve accurate rainfall measurement. Compared with mechanical rain sensors, optical rain gauges are smaller, more sensitive, easier to maintain, and smarter. It can work normally in high temperature and high humidity environment. High reliability, not easy to be blocked by fallen leaves.
The small ultrasonic integrated weather station can be equipped with a built-in electronic compass, and optional equipment with a built-in electronic compass. There is no longer any orientation requirement during installation, and it only needs to be installed horizontally. This model is suitable for use in mobile occasions such as marine ships and automobile transportation, and there is no direction requirement during installation.
The small ultrasonic integrated weather station adopts 4G mode output, no need for on-site wiring, and there is no distance limit. The site where the equipment is installed can monitor the data remotely through the network, and upload the data collected by the sensor to the monitoring center or cloud platform through 4G communication. for users to view. It has functions such as real-time monitoring and over-limit alarm, and supports real-time data viewing, data historical query, and remote monitoring.
The picture of intelligent life is slowly unfolding. The arrival of the 5G era makes smart light poles more meaningful. If smart speakers are becoming an entrance to smart home life, then smart light poles may become an important entrance and node for a new generation of urban information infrastructure.
