More about See.Sense and their work
Cities want to encourage and enable more people to cycle but planners need better data insights to plan more efficiently and improve conditions for cycling. See.Sense is working to bring the whole community of cyclists together, with technology, to improve journeys for everyone. Through its award-winning technology that gives cyclists more visibility on their ride, and cities more information on their roads.
See.Sense first featured in Digital Catapult’s Autumn showcase in 2016 and were the first small to medium enterprise to connect to the LPWAN Testbed receiving a highly commended award for its project in Cambridge. From there it developed a LoRaWAN device to integrate into Belfast City Council’s Bike Share scheme and have now further developed this technology further using NB-IoT in collaboration with Vodafone, for commercial launch of this tech along with a consumer theft tracking device in 2020.
