Fusus unveils smart city video platform

October 28, 2019 Read time: 1 min

Fusus has launched a unified video solution for smart cities which it says combines private and public video sources into a single platform called FususOne. Fusus detects, analyses and connects to every camera on a building’s network and sends a unified video feed to a single web interface, the company adds.

Fusus CEO Chris Lindenau says it pulls in “video from multiple sources into a single platform to speed emergency response and provide situational awareness”.

According to Fusus, police, fire and emergency medical services personnel can access a mobile version of the system via an iOS or 1812 Android mobile app to stream video from incident sites to transmit their location and communicate with their command centre.

• Separately, a book has been published to serve as a roadmap to developing connectivity in urban areas. The authors of Smart Cities: Introducing Digital Innovations to Cities explore how the concept could solve issues such as mobility, pollution and inclusion.

    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a

    David Crawford watches the race to get the world's first PRT system up and running. To paraphrase the old joke about buses bunching, you seem to have to wait several decades for a Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) system, and then half a dozen come along together. Currently, in fact, there are well over that number of schemes for driverless electric passenger-carrying 'pod' networks at various stages of planning, design and implementation around the world. Locations range from a straight-off-the-drawing board ne
