Abstract
Lighting fixture data hubs and systems and methods for use. An example of a data hub may include an annunciator configured to generate first and second indications; a sensor configured to detect a zone including one or more parking spaces, pedestrians, or other activity areas in a vicinity of the data hub and to determine whether or not one or more vehicles, pedestrians, and/or activities occurring in the activity areas are present within the zone, the sensor further configured to emit signals corresponding to said detection; and a gateway in communication with an on-board processor and the annunciator, the on-board processor configured for EDGE computing and processing to receive and analyze the signals from the sensor, communicate said signals to the gateway, and operable to allow the gateway to direct the annunciator to generate the first indication or the second indication in response to the signals.
