Applied Information and Currux Vision have partnered to provide traffic management solutions.

The firms will integrate Currux’s Smart City ITS intersection AI technology with Applied’s Glance Smart City Supervisory platform.

Cloud-based software solution Glance streamlines management of traffic infrastructure and ITS assets by enabling remote monitoring and real-time control. 

It is deployed in 1,200 locations across the US and Canada, and can be accessed via smartphones, tablets or desktops.

Currux's Vision Smart City ITS delivers real-time, autonomous control systems for traffic management including vehicle, incident and pedestrian/bicycle detection, data analytics and alerts, real-time signal timing optimisation and connected vehicle infrastructure. 

The platform's analytics identify, document and warn of near-misses, speeding and red-light running as well as proactive management of physical signs, traffic lights and roadside units.

“The collaboration will achieve a breakthrough in communications between transportation infrastructure, road users and managers, opening vast new opportunities with connected and autonomous vehicles, traffic safety and data driven and efficient city planning,” says Alexander Colosivschi, founder and CEO of Currux Vision.

“The integration of Currux AI technology with Glance equips traffic managers with advanced predictive capabilities, enabling them to pinpoint and address safety issues at problem locations before they escalate into incidents resulting in injury or fatality,” said Bryan Mulligan, president of Applied Information. “This is the promise of artificial intelligence coming to fruition to make the world a better, safer place.”

Around 22% of the fatalities are pedestrians, 15% will be motorcycle riders and 8% cyclists. So despite the improvements in road safe
