This is the fifth video segment from a conference at Princeton University on academic “Smart Cities” research and its potential relevance to New Jersey’s urban centers. 

Princeton University and Rutgers University professors are working to develop innovative technologies for future smart cities through a commitment to evolve computing technology, data infrastructure design, data sharing methods, and artificial intelligence capabilities. 

“Building the Future: New Technological Frontiers in Cities” was a showcase of New Jersey university research regarding integrating urban infrastructure with networked sensors, data analytics, and other novel technologies to improve quality of life, resiliency and sustainability in urban environments. 

A key objective of the day was identifying new opportunities for collaboration between universities, industry, foundations, and government in this important field.

The multi-institutional conference was organized by Princeton’s Office of Corporate Engagement and Foundation Relations and the Metropolis Project, with support from Lyft. It was held on May 6, 2019.
