Landscape Forms has relaunched SHUFFLE, a modular smart-pole system that brings Wi-Fi, cameras, sensors, two-way communications and EV-charging capabilities into a single vertical structure. The company positions the updated platform as a response to public spaces that are adding more single-purpose pole-mounted equipment—lighting, cameras, sensors and connectivity hardware—even as available space remains limited.
According to Landscape Forms, the relaunch is aimed at municipalities, campuses and commercial developers seeking to expand site functionality without adding visual clutter or additional cost. SHUFFLE is designed to consolidate those functions into one adaptable system that is easy to activate and install, with modular components intended to support customization and future changes.
The integrated design is also meant to bring modern aesthetics and efficiencies to busy, multi-use environments. Landscape Forms has simplified configuration through a new build feature on its website, where clients can specify preferred camera and technology brands and choose among options within each category.
Modular features and configuration
SHUFFLE’s modular architecture allows the system to be configured for specialized environments as well as general public spaces. The company says the design can provide an added measure of security and convenience in places where people gather to work, travel, study and recreate.
New feature updates are designed around plug-and-play simplicity. They include a 360-degree area light, a decorative light ring, a 180-degree area light, quad-view and 180-degree cameras, motion sensors, and loudspeaker and intercom modules. These options let site managers combine lighting, camera, sensing and communications functions on one pole rather than deploying separate fixtures for each task.
Applications and design intent
Landscape Forms lists university and business campuses, airports and commuting hubs, shopping malls and tourist areas, concert halls, city parks, sports venues and hospitals among the settings suited to the system. In those environments, the company says, multi-use adaptability and robust communication features can help site managers address a range of requirements without multiplying visible infrastructure.
“This is the solution site designers have been waiting for,” said Shannon Lee, Business Development Manager for Smart Poles at Schréder. Lee said SHUFFLE was designed to fit busy public spaces with product and feature sets that can be updated as site needs evolve. She added that safety and connectivity are integrated into outdoor spaces without dominating them, making the system accessible and user friendly.
Jordan Agustin, President of Lighting at Landscape Forms, framed the relaunch as an example of technology and design working together. He said new features integrated into SHUFFLE’s streamlined design enhance the beauty and functionality of outdoor space while advancing the company’s mission of connecting people to the outdoors and to each other.
The relaunch therefore centers on consolidation and configurability: a single pole platform intended to host lighting, connectivity, sensing, communications and EV charging, with options that can be selected through Landscape Forms’ configuration tool and updated as site requirements change.
