Curiosity Lab at Peachtree Corners, a facility billed as "a 5G-enabled autonomous vehicle and smart city living laboratory" located in Peachtree Corners, Georgia, a northern suburb of Atlanta, today announced a strategic partnership with Hargray Fiber to provide critical infrastructure for the lab's stakeholders.
Recognizing Curiosity Lab’s commitment to the advancement of smart city technology, Hargray has partnered with the lab to supply it with dedicated fiber connectivity. Throughout Curiosity Lab, Hargray’s fiber optic-cable will serve as the key infrastructure backbone, with all services using or connected to the lab’s network benefiting from Hargray’s efficient, seamless transfer of data.
The centerpiece of the lab is a 1.5-mile test and demo track which provides a real-world environment to explore emerging technologies. Additional infrastructure includes a network operations center, smart poles, DSRC units, and a 25,000 square foot tech incubator.
