South China Morning Post published this video item, entitled “Wuhan’s new wireless charging lamp posts keep smartphones alive on streets of Chinese city” – below is their description.
Mobile phone users who need a quick charge now only need to look for the nearest street light in the central Chinese city of Wuhan. More than 60 lamp posts on the busy Jianghan Road have been fitted with wireless charging equipment. Two charging points were installed on each street lamp in a pedestrian zone as part of a pilot scheme organised by the Wuhan Urban and Rural Construction Bureau. The bureau said the free service can charge most phones to about 70 per cent in about 20 minutes. The smart lamp posts also have equipment which can monitor crowds, broadcast announcements and improve 5G wireless network coverage. Support us: https://subscribe.scmp.com
