The public can check the road conditions, connect with WIFI, search for city information, etc. on the touch screen of the street lamp base.

After integration, the current road components of Tianhe South Second Road have been reduced from the original 52 to 35, which not only improves the street environment but also reduces the cost of social public utilities in the future.
