8709 Aipark is using Intertraffic to highlight its Internet of Things device that aims to monitor parking spot availability. Called ParkingSensor, the product is generally mounted to light poles or buildings and detects parked vehicles in its field view. One sensor is said to capture the availability of 20 parking spots in real time.


The information is then sent to connected apps, car infotainment systems or management tools for efficient last mile navigation. Its patent pending system uses a cloud backend to predict the parking occupancy even for spots that are not directly monitored by evaluating the similarity among parking spots.

Matthias Rudnik, co-founder of Aipark, said: “We also have a mobile app that gives users advise on the easiest parking space to fill the gap between parking and destination. We launched this product to help reduce the 30% of traffic that is caused by drivers trying to find parking spots.”

Torgen Hauschild, the company’s other co-founder added: “You can also find the location of electric vehicle chargers as well a visualisation of nitrogen dioxide levels in the city.”

ParkingSensor’s artificial intelligence conducts the analysis autonomously for full compliance with the data protection regulations.

    A Tour de France winner it may not be but the ScanBike is a tour de force for parking attendants. Essentially, the ScanBike is a small plastic box weighing 14kg that can be attached onto the rear carrier of any heavy-duty bicycle and scooter. It is self-contained, working independently from the vehicle thanks to its own battery that operates the equipment for 3-5 hours. This gives operators high freedom of choice of the vehicle, explains Coen Borren, head of marketing for Scanacar, makers of the ScanB

  • Tritium receives US funding to make cheaper ultra-fast EV charger
    September 14, 2018
    Tritium will use $400,000 in US funding to develop a cheaper version of its Veefil-PK ultra-fast charger for electric vehicles (EVs). The fund is part of the Electric Power Research Institute's (EPRI) $3.2m package, issued by the US Department of Energy (DoE), to develop a fast charging system which will connect to the grid. Once complete, the plug-in system is expected to reduce the impact on the grid and charge multiple EVs quickly. Mark McGranaghan, EPRI vice president of integrated grid, says: “Our
