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.

    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:

    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti
