Lippo CEO John Riady says: “We intend to implement IoT technology through smart cluster management and smart traffic management in Lippo Village."

Lippo says smart cluster management utilises advanced camera technology for facial recognition of occupants in vehicles and can also read vehicle number plates of township residents and identify unknown visitors. 

According to Lippo, smart traffic management uses smart CCTV mode to count the number of vehicles that enter an area while also differentiating vehicle types including motorbikes, cars, buses and trucks. This technology will improve traffic flow at specific times throughout the day, the company adds.

    Bluetooth and Wi-Fi offer new options for travel time measurements
    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c

    Schneider to implement free-flow tolling solution in Brazil
    Schneider Electric is to implement what is said to be one of Brazil’s first three Multi-Lane Free-Flow (MLFF) systems for highway concession company Renovias, enabling the concessionaire to carry out electronic toll collection without the need for toll collectors or requiring vehicles to stop. Schneider says this will improve drivers’ experience when travelling through the toll stations, while being able to travel at a constant speed will reduce waiting times, traffic jams and emissions. The project inclu

However you define a ‘smart city’, one of the key ingredients will be an efficient transport system. As most governments and city authorities face financial constraints, incremental improvements in the existing systems is the most likely way forward. In London, new trains and signalling are improving the capacity of the Underground but that then reveals previously
