It will compete with Eco-Counter’s Citix 3D counter that automatically counts and differentiates pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles, as well as ApplyParking’s Signs to Lines Mapping, which maps paint on the street related to traffic and parking management.

The Safety nominees feature Viion Systems’ TrafficCam 3D Lidar smart camera with on-board processing and telemetry for traffic safety and security applications alongside Sernis Tecnologic Solutions’ SR-90 system which is said to provide speed reduction of vehicles in controlled speed zones. In addition, Traffic Technology’s SpeedWatch+ has also been chosen for the award with for its system that wirelessly interfaces to the SpeedWatch device with the intention of warning drivers of their disregard for community road safety.

ParkNow’s On-Street Parking Info (OSPI) has been selected for the Smart Mobility award. It aims to forecast space availability based on historic traffic flows, parking meter data and transactions from parking apps. Additionally, Dynniq’s CrossCycle app, which is said to identify cyclists when they approach an intersection and offer them the green light more quickly has also been shortlisted along with EasyPark Group’s Find&Pay app. The solution is designed with the intention of offering payment and turn-by-turn navigation directly to find available parking for on and off-street locations.
