Paris2connect is an ambitious project that aims to demonstrate how a shared urban digital infrastructure can meet the growing needs of the Smart-City, connectivity and autonomous mobility, all in an inclusive approach that respects the environment and its inhabitants.
Located between Bercy and Gare de Lyon, this connected district incorporates a range of infrastructures, including signage, management of transport flows and accessibility with a set of connected audio terminals, a mobility observatory tracking the flows of different types of vehicle, and the provision of information on an autonomous reading device as soon as you leave the metro.
As part of this project, winner of the “Quartier d’Innovation Urbaine” award launched by Paris City Council and the Urban Lab, EXEM has chosen to make its contribution to Paris2Connect by proposing to deploy its EMF Observatory in order to provide the necessary transparency regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields. “A laboratory specialising in monitoring human exposure to electromagnetic fields, EXEM is breaking new ground in the smart city ecosystem with the first electromagnetic field observatory to meet the need to monitor digital networks. Neutral and independent, EXEM has chosen to contribute its expertise to the Paris2connect project to support the societal debate on electromagnetic exposure” explains Guilhem Astre, EXEM’s Chairman.
Installed before Paris2Connect goes live on 12 and 13 November, the 7 sensors developed and supplied by EXEM will be used to measure the overall level of exposure to electromagnetic fields at the Paris2Connect experimental site.
The aim is to assess the impact of the project by comparing measurements before and after the new connected infrastructure is switched on.
