The Smart Pole is an integrated road-aligned eco-system for enhancing technology across data transportation grids and to support special purpose access by multiple parties and licencees, such as government transport departments, municipalities, private entities, telcos, law enforcement groups. Our strategic goal is for the Smart Pole to leverage real-time system reporting, data, and for special purpose sensors to be built into the Smart Pole, based on the relevant needs and product demand. The Smart Pole is intended to facilitate roads and highways with intelligent management, vehicle flow detection, vehicle monitoring, road maintenance, road safety, emergency rescue, and support intelligent messaging and intelligent payment systems.

The Company intends to be at the forefront of developing a new generation of connected poles. linked to our existing transport logistics software for supporting existing and future

Importantly, the Smart Poles are intended to leverage 5G base stations for enhancing signal strength and interconnectivity across urban and regional areas. Our vision for the Smart Poles Project includes ultimately combinig the above, with inbuilt video capabilities so operators and licencees are able to utlise internet connectivity, AI processing, and AR across large geographical areas where big data can be utilised to reduce costs and improve services. Orcoda believes that the benefits of this vision will eventually benefit the bottom line of every Orcoda business division.
