The ITS Australia Summit 2024 will explore approaches to safe, sustainable and inclusive transport for vibrant communities by leveraging the ever-expanding capabilities of technology.
Sensys Networks will be demonstrating why it is one of the most innovative companies in the ITS sector, with the unveiling of a new traffic detection sensor, the EZ-Out FlexMag3, at ITS America 2024 in Phoenix. Building on the excellent durability and rapid deployment capability of FlexMag3, the ground-breaking EZ-Out system makes it possible to swap sensors in seconds.
IBM has announced that two industry leaders, Asahi Kasei and Central Glass, will join its Battery 500 Project team and collaborate on far-reaching research with the potential to accelerate the switch from gasoline to electricity as the primary power source for vehicles. In 2009, IBM Research pioneered a sustainable mobility project to develop lithium-air battery technology capable of powering a family-sized electric car for approximately 500 miles (800 km) on a single charge.
A mathematical model that could significantly reduce traffic congestion by combining data from existing infrastructure, remote sensors, mobile devices and their communication systems has been developed by a research team from Australia’s Swinburne University of Technology. Swinburne‘s Congestion Breaker project utilises intelligent transport systems (ITS), a field of research that combines information and data from a range of sources for effective traffic control.
