Tata’s smart city software reduces payback period from LED streetlights

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) says its new Intelligent Urban Exchange (IUX) intelligent software allow cities to derive 15% to 25% in additional savings from LED lighting by optimising streetlight operation using machine learning and predictive analytics on real-time and historic data. Designed for both LED and conventional streetlights, TCS says the cloud-based IUX enables individual streetlights to respond to real-time events by automatically adjusting city lighting to suit changes in traffic, people

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) says its new Intelligent Urban Exchange (IUX) intelligent software allow cities to derive 15% to 25% in additional savings from LED lighting by optimising streetlight operation using machine learning and predictive analytics on real-time and historic data.

Designed for both LED and conventional streetlights, TCS says the cloud-based IUX enables individual streetlights to respond to real-time events by automatically adjusting city lighting to suit changes in traffic, people movement, weather and crime patterns.

According to TCS, its connected intelligence platform enables data from transportation, energy, water and other domains to be accessed, exchanged and analysed, making it useful for crisis management and emergency response.

    According to Ertico, the future of traffic management on urban and inter-urban networks will rely on direct communication and interaction between vehicles and the infrastructure, using new technologies called cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS) that support real-time exchange of traffic data. This cooperation can enable a wide range of applications such as vehicle-sourced data collection, green light and speed advice, automated hazard detection, selective vehicle priority, dynamic city logisti

    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne

Israel ranks alongside countries such as the US and France in the road safety stakes, with an average 7.1 deaths per billion kilometres driven. But at that point the similarities end, as the country’s overriding issue is pedestrian safety. This is driven by several factors, including being a relatively small country where pe
