Smart Docklands Announces €50,000 seed fund investment into Four Pilot Projects to Address Community Need

Smart Docklands is delighted to announce the winners of its first Call for Pilots. The programme is delivered in partnership between Dublin City Council and the CONNECT Research Ireland Centre for Future Networks headquartered at Trinity College Dublin

Smart Docklands is one of Dublin’s flagship smart districts – a unique collaboration across academia, industry and local government to advocate for and pilot community centred technology innovations.

This Call for Pilots aims to tackle key community priorities identified through a community survey that was carried out in late 2023 and early 2024 where insights were gathered from over 300 responses. Smart Docklands ensures that smart tech is not just being deployed for ‘tech’s sake’, the programme works to engage directly with the community who live in, work in or visit the Docklands. This is done through in-person events and innovative approaches to community surveys.

After extensive community engagement, followed by a Call for Pilots four projects have now been selected out of 41 applications that were submitted to receive seed funding, with €12,500 allocated to each project. The winning pilots will tackle pressing challenges across environmental monitoring, community development, and antisocial behaviour, aiming to create a more sustainable, inclusive, and enjoyable Docklands for all.

 

Jamie Cudden, Smart City Lead on announcing the pilot winners at an event in the Dublin City Council Innovation Hub in the CHQ said:

“These pilot projects highlight how technology can make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. By directly engaging with the community, we’ve chosen initiatives to address the Docklands’ community concerns around sustainability, youth engagement and environmental concerns. We are super excited to be working with such an amazing group of innovators and entrepreneurs who all want to make a difference for the Docklands community!”.

Professor Dan Kilper, Director CONNECT Centre, Trinity College Dublin said: 

“The CONNECT Centre is proud to partner with Smart Docklands on the Pilot Projects, which play an important role in demonstrating the transformative impact technology can have when guided by community needs. These initiatives create solutions that address real challenges and pave the way for a smarter, more sustainable future. The pilot winners’ projects highlight this important work—congratulations to them and to our colleagues at Smart Docklands.”

The four pilot winners are:

  • UTS Technologies – River Liffey Water Sensors: This project introduces a network of sensors along the River Liffey to deliver real-time data on water behaviour, supporting a diverse range of users including kayaking and boating. The aim of this initiative is to bring an improved understanding and actionable insights for users of the river and to support more sustainable river management.
  • UCD – Count Docklands: Deploying a network of citizen science traffic monitoring, low-cost, camera-based traffic counters across the Docklands. This will empower citizen scientists to gather crucial data, supporting Dublin’s transport goals improving community engagement in urban mobility planning and traffic monitoring.
  • UCD – Craft My Street: Highly innovative youth engagement leveraging open-source geospatial data and Minecraft for crowd mapping through interactive multiplayers gaming. This pilot aims to support young people to actively participate in shaping policies and projects that affect their communities.
  • HoloGen – Immersive Graffiti: Leveraging AR/VR technology to teach young people about street art, this project turns illegal tagging into an opportunity for learning and expressing art in a safe virtual space. The aim of which is to reduce illegal graffiti and a boost in creative urban expression.

The Smart Docklands programme established in 2017 has a track record of collaboration where academia, local government, industry, and residents come together to address urban challenges through innovation and deployment of new and emerging technologies. The Call for Pilots is a testament to the programme’s commitment to ensuring that technology serves real community needs.

Smart Docklands’ first Call for Pilots represents a milestone in creating a connected, innovative, and engaged urban environment. By addressing key challenges through collaboration, education, and smart technology, these pilot projects highlight the benefit of what smart districts can achieve.

Smart Docklands extend thanks to Accenture, An Post, IPB Insurance, and National College Ireland for their support in evaluating applications. Their expertise and collaboration have been crucial to ensuring a fair and thorough process, highlighting the power of collective effort.

Source Galileo and Rosslare Europort sign agreement to develop offshore wind projects

Source Galileo, a leading Irish and European renewable energy development company, and Iarnród Éireann, the Port Authority for Rosslare Europort, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to work together with the aim of achieving the common goal of developing Rosslare Europort as a key facilitator in the delivery of large-scale offshore wind farm projects in Irish coastal waters.

A redevelopment plan for Rosslare Europort to facilitate both offshore wind farm construction, and operations and maintenance, is currently being progressed by Iarnród Éireann. It plans to establish the port, its hinterland, and the south-east region as Ireland’s Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Hub, with the potential to create up to 2,000 jobs.

While the joint agreement between Source Galileo and Iarnród Éireann is non-exclusive in nature, it seeks to combine their respective fields of expertise and knowledge to maximise the opportunities and potential to develop their respective development plans.

Source Galileo is developing 10 GW of offshore wind to electricity and wind to hydrogen projects off the coasts of Europe. Its portfolio includes the Mac Lir project, a proposed offshore wind farm located off the coasts of Wicklow and Wexford.

The project has a target installed capacity of 700 MW+, which equates to approximately 15% of Ireland’s commitment to achieve 5 GW of offshore wind by 2030. The project also has the potential to meet the needs of over 600,000 households and to offset over one million tonnes of carbon emissions each year.

At its nearest point, Mac Lir’s proposed turbine array area will be over 22 kilometres off the east coast, lying entirely outside Ireland’s 12 nautical mile foreshore limit. This area, which spans from south of Arklow to Cahore Point, has been strategically selected by Source Galileo to reduce visibility from the coast, to limit environmental and economic impacts and to harness stronger wind speeds that are found further offshore.

Ingka Investments, the investment arm of Ingka Group, the largest IKEA retailer, has secured a 20% stake in the Irish offshore wind projects of Source Galileo, which includes the Mac Lir project. Work is underway to prepare an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Scoping Report for the project, with the aim to submit a planning application for the project in late 2026.

Rosslare Europort is uniquely located within 60-100 nautical miles of most of the planned Offshore Renewal Energy developments in the Irish and Celtic seas. To deliver its vision for ORE, Rosslare Europort plans significant works including:

–          ORE purpose-built quay and berth.

–          ORE quayside storage and pre-construction / up to 50 acres in area.

–          Navigable channel dredged down to a minimum of 9-11 metres depth.

–          Management Control Centre and management offices and facilities for Operations and Maintenance.

Kevin Lynch, CEO of Source Galileo said: “Source Galileo is developing a portfolio of projects that will generate substantial clean renewable energy direct to homes and business across Ireland. We look forward to working with Iarnród Éireann to jointly develop solutions that will assist the Government to accelerate its target of delivering 5 GW of offshore wind by 2030, and 20 GW by 2040”.

Glenn Carr, Director Commercial Business Units for Iarnród Éireann, Port Authority Rosslare Europort said: “Rosslare Europort is excited to work with Source Galileo whose vision for the potential of ORE aligns with our own.  We believe there are strong synergies to be achieved as we work together to place this renewable energy industry at the heart of Ireland’s decarbonised future.”

Westmeath on Friday 24th May 2024.

Minister of State for Trade Promotion, Digital and Company Regulation, Dara Calleary TD, welcomed the launch of this year’s awards, ‘Not only do these awards highlight the benefits and possibilities of digital transformation in Ireland, they are fundamental to promoting awareness, use and understanding of digital offerings for our communities, for businesses and for our citizens the length and breadth of the country. Since the foundation of the awards, it has been inspiring to see such positive change brought about in local communities across the country through digital innovation.’

Oonagh McCutcheon, National Director of the .ie Digital Town Awards Programme said ‘The .ie Digital Town Awards create a real sense of pride for towns and communities, big and small, that are making massive leaps with digital technologies. We saw a 15% increase in the number of entries we received in 2023 compared to 2022 and as we enter the fourth year of the awards it is incredibly encouraging to see entries coming in from towns and villages the length and breadth of the country’.   

‘We are also delighted to welcome our new pillar sponsor Square on board this year, a digital-first organisation which shares our passion for empowering small businesses and organisations to thrive online. Square joins our long-term supporter and category sponsor, Western Development Commission.

Business technology platform Square has been unveiled as the awards pillar sponsor for 2024.

Five worthwhile 3D printer projects

When you’re stuck at home and boredom sets in, it might be time to put your 3D printer to some use. In fact, many people opt for that exact creative option and search for a number of intriguing 3D printing ideas. Given the wealth of options available through this technology, though, it can be a tad overwhelming. 

There are certainly many routes you can go down when assessing the different types of printer projects many 3D printers tend to opt for. For example, sports fans might aim to replicate the ball in their particular sport or even try to recreate their beloved teams’ badge. Additionally, gaming fans might try to produce a Pokemon-themed print or a character from their favourite Playtech casino games. Then, for other people, a food-themed print might be a preference, alongside something work-related. Essentially, the options are endless; it’s just about finding a way to make this innovative technology work for you. 

One thing that is for certain, though, is that you shouldn’t be afraid to get creative with a 3D printer project. People are creating works of art on a regular basis, perhaps in order to spruce up their home with the addition of some 3D-themed sculptures or to provide a cute toy for a loved one. Whatever your preference is, below is a look at five worthwhile 3D printer projects to dive into. 

Exercise dumbbell 

If you occasionally work out at home, then adding to your gym with your very own exercise dumbbell surely appeals, right? A tin can dumbbell, for example, is easy to make and will help you feel the burn in the process. There are many STL files you can download to create a dumbbell base, although a design by the Samuel Bernier Project is a favoured option for many.

 

Business cards 

If you run your own business or you’re in need of some business cards for a particular reason, then creating your own with a 3D printer is an option worth exploring. Not only will people appreciate a personal touch but, similar to these bike business cards, they can look great, too. Creating a business card is fairly straightforward, it can enable your business to stand out from the crowd, and obviously help you spread the word. 

Book accessories 

If you’re partial to the odd good book then investing some time into a few handy accessories might appeal to you. From bookmarks to book holders, these fun and easy projects don’t take long but they’ll last a while. You might even be able to make a paperweight to hold down any magazines or any documents, too. The options are certainly extensive. 

Wheelchair ramp 

A fairly niche but hugely important product on the whole, particularly if you or any of your relatives are in a wheelchair, creating a small and portable wheelchair ramp is fairly straightforward and can come in extremely handy for people. All you need to do is download STL files of a simple ramp, then most solid 3D printers will be able to deliver the final product with ease. Once completed, a step in front of the shops or near your home can be easily navigated. 

Shoe insole

Many people with foot issues or walkers who simply want to add more comfort ahead of a long hike opt for shoe insoles. Not only can they add an additional layer of comfort, but they also protect your feet and help assist you with your everyday adventures. You’ll need flexible material and it can take a while to nail your final design, but it’s certainly worthwhile. 

 

How to Choose Crypto Projects for a Beginner

Understanding the variety of crypto projects is very difficult. At the moment there are so many of them that a beginner’s head would get dizzy from their variety. However, you should understand that not every project is worthy of your attention, and will not necessarily meet your requirements.  We will tell you how to identify worthy projects and understand how you can make money on them.

And about the different crypto projects to watch, you can learn on the platform ChainBroker. There you can find out the most current information.

Basic Selection Criteria 

The first and main factor to be evaluated right away is capitalization. Many people choose coins that are now at the top of the most demand because many investors have already believed in these projects. Guided by such a strategy, do not forget that LUNA was also once in the top 10, which helped attract serious investment and, afterward, trigger financial losses. There is always a risk when working with digital assets, so do not forget about diversification. If you decide to buy a cryptocurrency on the exchange, assess the following factors:

  • The chart of a particular coin. Pay particular attention to what price ups and downs the coin or token has experienced;
  • Position in the capitalization rankings;
  • The existence of a future development plan to determine the crypto project’s prospects;
  • Evaluate the type of blockchain, the goals of the development team, and what projects have been implemented before;
  • The current value of the cryptocurrency and price changes over the last period and in times of crisis.

When investing, assess your goals – long-term perspective or making a quick profit. This will help you choose projects that will bring you closer to the expected result.

Investment Objectives

The most relevant crypto-projects can bring fast profits. Meta-universes, NFT, DeFi, and solutions that form their own networks, such as Avalanche and Polkadot, are trending right now. To understand how investments with a term work, pay attention to a number of actions. What to consider when buying cryptocurrency:

  • Long-term. You’re investing in a project, and time plays in your favor. In the long term, your investment not only pays off but also increases (buy and HODL principle). The strategy presented is suitable for sustainable popular projects.
  • Medium-term. The strategy is used if a crypto-asset suddenly became in demand, so you can buy it on a wave of hype in order to sell it quickly enough.
  • Short-term. The riskiest investments because it is difficult or almost impossible to predict the coin’s behavior. But at the same time on such projects, you can increase your capital by several times.

For successful investments, analyze the market situation, paying attention to all aspects of the development of a particular crypto startup.

Market Research 

If you are just starting your way in the cryptocurrency market, you should do two pieces of research. The first is a cryptocurrency market recertification, and the second is a project-specific recertification. Over the past few years, the cryptocurrency sphere has been growing rapidly, going far beyond a tool to pay for goods on darknet marketplaces and attracting investors of all stripes. It is a huge industry with its own rules, players, and trends, such as DeFi, NFT, Web 3.0, and others. However, the lack of regulation and the fashion for cryptocurrency among people with low financial literacy led to the fact that strong projects from professional teams with a “big name” and projects created in a week by rogue singles with one single goal – scams can coexist here. That is why market research is an obligatory procedure before carrying out research for specific projects.

General Knowledge of the Project

Directions and sub-directions

  • Key players in venture capital investing in the cryptocurrency market;
  • Current trends;
  • Key media and professional resources;
  • Top Influencers and opinion leaders.

Start your dive into the world of cryptocurrencies by studying the top 50 or top 100 tokens by market capitalization. You need to understand the differences between Bitcoin and Ethereum, know what NFT is, what Bridge is, what Hard Fork, what Proof-of-Work and Proof-of-Stake mean, and what virtual land plots can sell for hundreds of thousands of dollars. So start with the leaders by studying their projects in detail. You can use aggregator sites like CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko to find Top Cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. 

You also need to immerse yourself in the information space. Twitter, Telegram, and Discord are mandatory accounts for this. Subscribe to the accounts of leading blockchain projects, mainstream media, venture capitalists, and opinion leaders. For convenience, it is recommended to use a separate Twitter account for the research, so as not to clog up the feed with other topics. Read what they write every day for a month to study the main trends and current trends in cryptocurrencies and understand who is who among Influencers and who can be trusted in what.

By the way, cryptocurrency trends are working out. The market is manipulative and the capitalization of young projects is small. Therefore, herd instinct plays an important role. If everyone is talking about NFT, it means that investors who hear this invest their money into projects related to them, and they start to grow rapidly. Now, for example, there is a lot of talk about AI, and we have already seen the growth of AI-related projects, and most likely we will see more (not financial advice). So it’s important for you to “be on trend”.

Top 5 NFT Projects You Can Invest Today

Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) are unique digital assets that exist on the blockchain. These tokens represent ownership of a particular asset, and they can be used to certify proof of ownership or provide access rights. They differ from traditional forms of digital currency because they cannot be interchanged or exchanged for other currencies or goods in the same way that Bitcoin or Ethereum can. Instead, each token is designed to be completely unique and have specific properties associated with it. This makes them ideal for use cases such as trading collectibles, provably rare artworks, and gaming items, verifying physical property, issuing crypto-tokens backed by real-world assets like cars, and much more. 

With NFTs becoming increasingly popular and versatile, there are endless possibilities for what can be done with them. From providing new forms of digital ownership, to opening up new markets and applications, NFTs are revolutionizing the way we think about ownership rights on the blockchain. They allow us to create unprecedented types of property rights that were never before possible. This makes it an exciting time for anyone interested in exploring the potential of this revolutionary technology.

At its core, a Non-Fungible Token is a unique piece of code that run on a blockchain network like Ethereum or EOS. It contains information such as ownership records and asset details, which can then be used to carry out certain transactions or access certain resources depending on how it is programmed. Unlike traditional digital currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin, NFTs are not meant to be exchanged or traded for other tokens or goods. Instead, each token is treated as a unique piece of digital property. This means that the owners have full control over how it is used, stored, and transferred.

The possibilities presented by Non-Fungible Tokens are seemingly limitless – from asset backing to providing access rights and certifying ownership records. It is an exciting time for anyone interested in exploring the potential of this revolutionary technology. As more developers explore the capabilities of NFTs, we expect to see more applications being developed that utilize their unique properties and open up new markets. With its ability to provide digital scarcity and immutable proof of ownership, NFTs have the potential to revolutionize the way we think about ownership rights on the blockchain.

It is no wonder that Non-Fungible Tokens are quickly becoming one of the hottest trends in the blockchain industry. With its ability to provide digital scarcity, proof of ownership and a new form of digital asset class, NFTs offer great potential for both users and developers alike. As more people become aware of this revolutionary technology, we can expect to see Non-Fungible Tokens become even more popular and versatile in the near future.

If you’re looking to invest in some NFTs, here are five of the best ones you can buy today:

1. CryptoPunks 

CryptoPunks are rare digital characters created by Larva Labs and released on Ethereum in 2017. They feature unique designs and attributes that give them their own individual personalities. Each punk is one-of-a-kind and cannot be replicated, making them highly sought after by investors.

2. Decentraland 

Decentraland is an Ethereum-based virtual world where users can purchase land parcels, build structures, collaborate with other players, and create art pieces using non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Players also have the ability to host events such as competitions or music festivals within the game’s 3D environment.

3. SuperRare 

SuperRare is a marketplace for artists and collectors to buy, sell, and discover unique digital artworks created using blockchain technology. It allows users to easily purchase limited edition works from talented creators around the world using NFTs.

4. Axie Infinity  

Axie Infinity is a fantasy collectible game built on the Ethereum blockchain where players buy, breed, battle, and raise adorable creatures called “Axies”. These collectible creatures are stored as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Ethereum blockchain and can be traded within the game or sold on secondary marketplaces such as OpenSea or Rarible.

5. NBA Top Shot 

NBA Top Shot is an official trading card marketplace powered by the Flow blockchain where fans can purchase officially licensed highlights from their favorite basketball games in packs or single cards individually known as “moments” which are stored as crypto collectibles called NFTs (non-fungible tokens). Moments range from personal player milestones to once-in-a-lifetime events between rival teams from past seasons that can now be shared with fellow collectors everywhere!

Key Takeaway

In conclusion, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are gaining popularity as digital assets that can be used to store and trade value. There are a variety of NFTs available on the market, from CryptoPunks and Decentraland to SuperRare, Axie Infinity, and NBA Top Shot. Each of these projects has its own distinct characteristics that make it an attractive investment option for those looking to expand their crypto portfolio. Ultimately, choosing which NFTs you want to invest in is up to your personal preferences and financial goals. With proper research and due diligence, you can find the right NFT investments for you!
