Collecting Data, the First Step toward Smart Cities

Posted on by parifex@dmin

Collecting Data, the First Step toward Smart Cities

Collecting many data is necessary for cities to understand the travel habits and then succeed their digitalization.

Traffic data collection is a key topic for cities and mobility digitalization. According to the United Nations, 68% of the world population will live in a city by 2050*, that is why cities are hurrying up to optimize population flows and provide efficient means of transport. It is time for cities to go forward through innovating environment friendly transport.

Vehicle Identification on A Picture – Zeming Liu’s Point of View

Posted on by parifex@dmin

According to Zeming Liu, Innovation Hub Manager in PARIFEX, “At first sight, the speeding vehicle identification seems impossible while looking at a 2D picture including various vehicles. However, I tell you how to do…

Zeming, Liu, as Innovation Hub Manager at PARIFEX, which technical innovation do you want to share with our readers?

I am going to talk about the Vehicle Identification System. At first sight, it seems impossible to know which vehicle has gone too fast while looking at a 2D picture including various vehicles. This system allows to accurately identify the speeding vehicle through two principles: the vehicle recognition and the capability to cut it out on the picture.

How does it work precisely?

Firstly, as the picture will be in two dimensions, perspective must be defined with the sensor. Through our research, we have found robust image processing solutions in order to determine the leak point on the road and then easily identify the lanes despite difficulties like shadows which could distort the information (picture on left). Through our mathematical studies and research in geometric equations, we are able to correct the perspective on the road and draw the lanes without any additional on-site measures. When the sensor starts, it is automatically configured depending on the location.

Can you guarantee that the identified vehicle is the defective one?

Our research has enabled to correct perspective and prove which is the defective vehicle. On a picture showing an offense, the information in two dimensions is not deformed by the perspective through a mathematical algorithm found by PARIFEX which creates a linearity with the distance in three dimensions measured by the LiDAR sensor. On the image, the vehicle has two information in terms of distance: a distance in three dimensions and another one defined by our picture analyzing algorithm. Given their linear relationship (picture on right), the 3D distance allows to determine on which line is the vehicle. When we know the 3D position of the vehicle, then we can easily identify the lane.

Is there an impact on the use of the sensor?

The automatic calibration of the sensor is easier and does not need any intervention of a surveyor, for example. The user only needs to put the sensor by the roadside and wait for around thirty vehicles passing by in order to have the sensor ready to use.

PODCAST 🎙️ – PARIFEX answers Intelligent Transport questions about the future of traffic management

Posted on by parifex@dmin

PARIFEX takes part to the Intelligent Transport podcast to talk the present and future of traffic management, and its importance in shaping our cities today and tomorrow.

Listen to the podcast

In this podcast, Intelligent Transport Editor Luke Antoniou talks traffic management with Parifex’s Nathalie Deguen.

Data is key to modern traffic management – in this podcast, Nathalie explains why this is, how data is being collected and used to help city authorities make better informed decisions, and how these decisions are in turn making traffic management more efficient.

Nathalie also details the role of traffic management today in helping to support cities’ wider policy objectives, from reducing congestion, to boosting capacity and fighting climate change. There’s discussion of how the latest technologies can help cities better understand how their infrastructure is being utilised, and how this is crucial for shaping the future of urban planning and mobility.

Further, we also discuss the work of Parifex now and in the future, with Nathalie detailing how the company’s 3D-LIDAR technology works and the upcoming pilot project in conjunction with the French Ministry of Ecology.

Paris and Sofia, the Mobility Revolution has begun

Posted on by parifex@dmin
Autonomy_digital

Autonomy Digital, held on 4-5 November, is an international show dedicated to professionals of sustainable mobility. This year, debates focused on cities expectations and perspectives on the digitalization of mobility. PARIFEX took part in the show and presented the NANO-CAM, its latest innovative sensor able to collect real time traffic data.

Environment-friendly urban areas

Professionals assert that cities intend to digitalize and to become more environment-friendly. The increase in the number of vehicles has encouraged some metropolis to reconsider their public transport offer. Paris and Sofia are concrete examples on how cities can improve the urban area.

As Paris has observed the vast empty parking space, the City decided to convert this space into green spaces.

The city of Sofia has also noticed a substantial growing ratio car per habitant. That is why the Bulgarian capital intends to reduce the number of vehicles in the town center. This transformation may considerably improve the quality of life while enhancing its attractivity.

Sofia plans to completely change the inhabitants travel habits by making the city center accessible only by public transport, autonomous vehicles, etc., and building parking at the edge of the city.

However, the sanitary crisis has upset these ambitions. Indeed, cars are today the only secured mean of transport allowing to respect the social distancing unlike public transport.

Dedicated infrastructure for mobility

The traffic evolution is based on a precise plan and effective infrastructures. Cities must be aware of travels habits, traffic, the number of vehicles per day, etc., before beginning any change. Collecting data is an substantial step before revamping mobility and offering innovative services such as autonomous shuttles. To help cities to gather data, PARIFEX proposes the NANO-CAM, a cutting-edge sensor that enables to collect traffic data in real time. Based on the LiDAR 3D technology, the NANO-CAM is able to define many information such as the number of vehicles, vehicles classification, speed, etc. Dedicated to an autonomous shuttle network, the sensor offers a 360-degree analysis in order to get speed, distance between vehicles and then guarantee a safe travel.

People as key actors 

Debates have also revealed that local authorities will need to find solutions to get the full support of inhabitants. But how can they do to involve citizens? According to the experts, citizens are aware that cities are even more congested and a change is needed. They know that it is necessary to move into a new environment-friendly urban area. That is why Paris has launched a public survey to get Parisians opinion through a website, workshops, conferences… and need to use every means possible to involve them in the project.
