At Arlington's most recent Digital Destiny event, Dr. Indu B Singh, President and CEO of Planet Defense, LLC, sounds a cautionary warning to any local government that aspires to be a Smart Community.
A
So
I'm
going
to
get
little
philosophical
here,
I
see
a
smart
city
in
Arlington's
future.
But
here
is
my
caution
when
you
set
out
to
build
your
a
smart
city.
Most
new
technologies
are
very
disruptive
in
nature
today,
and
they
will
continue
to
be
so
so.
Selecting
the
technology
for
your
a
smart
city
and
smart
city
solution
is
is
very
important
and
they
should
they
should,
including
this
smart
city,
whole
vision
and
council,
smart
city.
They
should
reflect
on
the
cultural
value
and
the
lifestyle
of
the
community.
A
Don't
get
carried
about
carried
away
because
the
technologies
are
very
seductive
I've
been
in
this
business
one
time
and
they
can
force
you
to
do
things
that
you
do
not
necessarily
want
to,
and
that's
where
the
smartness
comes
in
planning.
Ok,
so
protecting
cultural
values
of
the
community
and
the
lifestyle
is
very
important,
as
you
modernize
yourself
through
His
mercy,.
