Bosch displays intelligent cameras

Bosch is displaying its range of intelligent cameras at ITS America 2018, featuring built-in intelligent video analytics for ITS applications. “[They offer] reliability and the best image quality you can get,” says Constant Rutter, marketing and application design for transportation, at Bosch Security Systems. Durability is also key, he went on: “Once it’s there, it’ll stay there forever, which is important for traffic.” Products on display include the MIC-9000i (near right, with regional sales manager

311 Bosch is displaying its range of intelligent cameras at ITS America 2018, featuring built-in intelligent video analytics for ITS applications. “[They offer] reliability and the best image quality you can get,” says Constant Rutter, marketing and application design for transportation, at Bosch Security Systems.

Durability is also key, he went on: “Once it’s there, it’ll stay there forever, which is important for traffic.” Products on display include the MIC-9000i (near right, with regional sales manager Jerry Albrecht) and MIC-7000i. Bosch says it will soon introduce new firmware that adds machine learning to its analytics capabilities, enabling the cameras to learn to recognise new object types.

This can be used for parking and queue detection – for instance, learning whether a parking spot is free or occupied. Bosch video analytics captures metadata from each scene - such as classification and counting information for people, bicycles, cars and trucks. A new data collection service from the company gathers and stores this data in a format that is readily accessible in a database, allowing comprehensive analysis and reporting via third-party dashboard tools.

The manufacturer is hosting a pedestrian detection V2X demonstration at the corner of Griswold and Jefferson, a short walk from the Cobo Center in Detroit.

    Bosch reveals VaaS solutions for intelligent intersections
    On-street parking near intersections, and along corridors, and storefronts in close proximity to roadways, can obstruct views of pedestrians. Combine these factors with the increase in distracted pedestrians, and it is clear why strategies to make such vulnerable road users more visible to motorists are essential to the safety of intersections and pedestrian crossings.

    Bosch takes video analytics to the edge
    Bosch video sensors with edge-based analytics for ITS – demonstrated at booth 841 – include Intelligent Video Analytics (IVA) Pro Traffic to detect, classify, and count pedestrians and vehicles, and trigger alerts for safety risks, such as vehicles traveling in the wrong direction. The cameras then trigger alerts to partner devices for V2X communications, broadcasting safety messages to on-board units in connected vehicles for a real-time safety solution.

    Bosch detection technology mimics the human brain
    Real-time safety and data aggregation solutions for ITS will be the focus at the Bosch booth. Video sensors with embedded neural network-based video analytics for ITS will detect pedestrians in a crosswalk, heavy traffic on a highway, and congestion on an interchange. The cameras will trigger real-time alerts to partner devices for V2X communications, broadcasting safety messages to onboard units in connected vehicles. In addition to these demonstrations, the cameras can also alert on slow vehicles, stopped vehicles, and vehicles travelling the wrong way.
