Synopsis

Le città contemporanee sono organismi caratterizzati da luoghi e comunità mutevoli, dati ed informazioni passeggere, azioni e reazioni continue tra persone ed ambiente. Pertanto, dovrebbero essere reattive ai nostri cambiamenti comportamentali. Se lo diventassero a tutti gli effetti, potremmo essere in grado di costruire un ambiente urbano più efficiente. Nell’era post-urbana e ben oltre la smart city, il libro si occupa dunque di augmented city, ovvero un paradigma emergente che cerca di rispondere alle esigenze di una società più interconnessa, basata sulla conoscenza e creatività, inevitabilmente confrontata con il problema della sostenibilità urbana.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

• A utopic, yet attainable, vision of a future metropolis

The perfect city is a vibrant organism of data and information, sensors and actuators, actions and reactions, generated by users and environment both. Ten thousand years ago the city was invented as an aide for evolving communities. It bought together the top innovators of the day. Now once again, the city must become a device for augmenting our life - hence the title of this book. As technological immersion increases, our cities must adapt and be responsive to our behavioural changes. In The Augmented City, everyday data-capturing devices monitor rainfall, pollution, water, energy, natural light and traffic. They process this information in real time, creating a seamless pre-planning system that will enable the optimisation of resources. Giving collective access to this information will allow the public to synchronise their lives to the surrounding environment.
