Over 10 benches powered by solar panels will provide visitors with access to free Wi-Fi and the ability to wirelessly charge mobile devices. It will be enough for guests to put their smartphone on a bench, it is not even necessary to have a USB cable with you.
A smart watch with GPS will help families track the whereabouts of their children. They can be synchronized with their smartphones and control the movement of children in the usual way.
Two Smart Oasis centers on the beach provide shading and a solar-powered drinking water generation system. Smart Oasis can produce 90 liters of drinking water daily. It also has a charging area for smartphones and a cooling system.
