Public Space

The Challenge

In the future Pfaffquartier, smart light poles and sensors will contribute to modern city life through data. Services such as car-sharing services already use the available data to provide their users with sustainable mobility. E-charging stations, green spaces or co-working spaces also offer the potential to be used sustainably through digital services.

The #pfaffhack22 is therefore all about public space. Help shape the Pfaffquartier with your ideas and develop solutions for the sustainable use of data and services in public spaces! The > Volksbank Kaiserslautern awards the best teams with prize money in the amount of 2.500€ to pursue their ideas.
