Abstract: Urban environments are increasingly adopting smart technologies to promote sustainability and enhance public spaces. This paper introduces ZENAB – an AI-powered artificial tree system designed to detect human presence through smartwatch integration and activate its smart features within a 200-metre range. ZENAB combines AI, IoT, and eco-design to provide functions such as air purification, environmental monitoring, and interactive lighting. Built as a visionary model of future smart green infrastructure, ZENAB demonstrates how wearable devices can be harmonized with intelligent installations in public areas. This innovation aims to contribute to cleaner air, safer urban zones, and enhanced quality of life. The system represents a step forward in merging nature-inspired designs with real-time human detection and smart Responsiveness.
