NOW Wireless

Smart cities, connected.

UK‑designed smart city infrastructure and world‑deployed messaging software — from one company, for over two decades. NOW Wireless has designed and built its own wireless systems, detectors and AI in the United Kingdom since 2002, and puts them on the infrastructure a city already owns.

Where we deliver

Traffic signal showing green

Traffic Light Infrastructure

Fibre and wireless junction clusters

Junction clusters are a core part of what we do. Where the fibre is, the cluster follows — every approach served from one connection. Our wireless then illuminates the whole street, so signal heads, cameras and detectors can be added anywhere later with no ducting or trenching.

CCTV Infrastructure

Modular and scalable

Modular, scalable CCTV infrastructure for council control rooms and CCTV vendors. Start with one camera on one pole and grow to a city‑wide network on the same wireless backbone — same poles, same power, same network — adding AI analytics when you want them.

Smart City

Know what’s happening in your city

Connect everything, see everything, and act on it. Every sensor, camera and device on the street feeds one real‑time picture of the city, and actions — signal timings, diversions, alerts — are triggered automatically from what those inputs show.

Real-time data network

Real‑Time Data

The data layer a city runs on

SenseView, our real‑time database, captures data from any camera, sensor, device or communications system — streamed or polled — stores and streams CCTV, runs AI plug‑ins, triggers actions, predicts what comes next, and shares it all through one API.
