Smart Barbecues: Bringing People Together
Wyndham residents can now enjoy a better barbecue experience at some of our beautiful parks with the introduction of Smart Barbecues.
Wyndham City’s Smart City Portfolio Holder Cr Aaron An said Council introduced a six-month trial with Smart Barbecue being installed at Presidents Park and Bloom Street Reserve. Additional sites across the municipality are currently being considered for the busy summer season.
“Residents will also enjoy a cleaner facility because the sensor technology records regular cleaning and maintenance and if there is a fault with the barbecue Council will receive an alert to fix the issue.”
“This means the barbecue spends less time out of service and more time being used by the community.”
“The barbecues will be equipped with technology which eventually will be used to let the community know when a barbecue is available,” Cr An said.
“The barbecue use can also help Council in deciding if a certain area needs more bins, lighting, water or other related amenities.”
Cr An said the sensors on the hot plates would over time help Council compile data on how frequently each barbecue is used.
“This data will help Council manage the facilities, understand if the community needs more of these facilities and indicate when they need to be serviced or replaced.”
“This trial will identify the benefits of such technology and, if successful, the technology is expected to be retrofitted to all barbecues across the city.”
