4186 Xerox will play a leading part in the ITS World Congress in Vienna through its presence in two executive, six special interest, and one technical session, as well as the company’s sponsorship of the VIP room.

The company says it intends to use the event to underline its status as a global leader in business process and information technology services and the largest provider of mobility solutions to governments worldwide. As Xerox points out, for over 40 years it has worked together with transportation clients in over 35 countries delivering reliable solutions. From fare collection, smart ticketing, on- and off-street parking through data mining to toll solutions, and from back-office processing to infrastructure installation, Xerox says it provides systems and services that help solve major transportation problems.

The company invests around $1 billion on R&D every year and the latest innovation to emerge from its transportation scientists builds on the Xerox core competencies in device and personalised imaging, machine learning and data processing. The company claims its Xerox Licence Plate Recognition (XLPR) provides robust and much improved accuracy levels for all automated licence plate recognition applications including traffic management and safety, toll operations, access control and parking services.
