M1 announced enhancements to its Smart City Internet-of-Things (IoT) Solutions by using Nokia’s IMPACT IoT platform, which boosts M1’s capabilities to provide innovative IoT urban solutions in Singapore and overseas.
Since the launch of nationwide Narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT) in August 2017, M1 has rolled out various Smart City IoT initiatives including smart energy metering, smart street lightings, smart fleet management and smart logistics, as well as smart waste management. For example, using NB-IoT network for smart waste management, an IoT sensor is able to detect when a waste bin is full and prompt the cleaning service provider to remove the trash in a timely and on-demand manner.
