The SP4-C Outdoor Camera System is a new solution that relies on state-of-the art artificial intelligence technology. One camera can monitor dozens of spaces and, as the system is based on standard Ethernet technology, it can easily be scaled to thousands of spaces. The cameras transmit still images to a central computer on which the detection software runs. This topology allows for integration of standard of the shell cameras, which are easy to install and to set up. Moreover, the costs of installation and of ownership are reduced compared to traditional solutions.

Meanwhile, the SP4-C Indoor Camera System is also based on artificial intelligence technology and adds a new ground-breaking detection feature: plate recognition. This allows for the implementation of new services, like space reservations and lost and found vehicle service. One camera can monitor up to six parking spaces and is easily interconnected to the other cameras in the Ethernet network. This means reduced costs of installation and ownership.

    May 3, 2017
    Colin Sowman hears about a new truck parking information system being piloted across eight states. Legislation limits truck drivers’ hours with the result that they are often caught in a situation where they need to stop either for a break or an overnight rest. But as truck parking is in short supply, truck drivers spend an average of 56 minutes a day searching for available spaces and are often faced with the choice of driving beyond their permitted hours or parking illegally.

    The effect of moving objects on the electromagnetic landscape set up by cellular telephony networks can be detected and interpreted to give real-time traffic data across large geographical areas at low cost. Here, we revisit the Celldar concept. Global economic downturn has pushed public-sector agencies, transport administrations among them, to push even harder for cost efficiencies. Unfortunately, when it comes to transport safety and efficiency the public sector often has to work up to a cost rather than
