Like so many cities before it, Phoenix went all out to host the Super Bowl earlier this month. Expecting about 1 million fans to come to town for the biggest American sporting event of the year, the city rolled out a fleet of self-driving electric vehicles to ferry visitors from the airport. Robots sifted through the trash to pull out anything that could be composted. There were less visible developments, too. In preparation for the game, the local authorities upgraded a network of cameras around the city's downtown--and have kept them running after the spectators have left.
