Abstract: Smart street furniture with Wi-Fi and charging station is an innovative solution designed to improve urban infrastructure and support the development of smart cities. The main objective of this system is to provide public internet connectivity and mobile charging facilities in outdoor public spaces such as parks, bus stops, streets, and public squares. In this system, solar panels are used to generate renewable energy, which powers the Wi-Fi router, USB charging ports, and wireless charging modules integrated into the street furniture. The generated solar energy is stored in rechargeable batteries to ensure continuous operation even during nighttime or low sunlight conditions. This smart furniture not only provides seating for people but also acts as a digital service point by offering free internet access and device charging facilities. The system helps citizens stay connected, especially in public areas where access to electricity and internet may be limited. Additionally, the use of solar power makes the system environmentally friendly and reduces dependence on conventional electricity sources.
