The soon to be launched TomTom Link 100 dongle enables a smartphone to connect to real-time vehicle and driving information, allowing third parties to create a wide range of new mobile applications that make use of vehicle information and driver usage.
Easy to install, the device logs vehicle diagnostic information, such as engine rpm, load and temperature, directly from the on-board diagnostic port. The integrated 3D accelerometer logs driving data. Link 100 also offers accident detection and crash log
The wait for traffic analysis is over, thanks to swissSCOUT AI, a data protection compliant mobile camera system for multimodal traffic counting in real-time using artificial intelligence. It counts up to 10 vehicle classes as well as cyclists and pedestrians. It also analyses the traffic flow in intersections and roundabouts with an autonomy of up to seven days and real-time data on dynamic dashboards.
Innovative use of fleet management-generated data has optimised passenger service running times and achieved full payback in its first quarter Metro Vancouver’s South Coast British Columbia Transportation Authority (TransLink) has gained substantial benefits in bus idle time savings from a business intelligence (BI) solution, built from data captured in its ITS-based fleet management system. Delivered by public transport ITS specialist Init under a contract awarded in 2006, this includes on-board computers,
The EU’s UDRIVE project will investigate driver behaviour in terms of road safety and the decarbonisation of road transport, as Nicole van Nes and Silvia Curbelo explain. There were nearly 25,700 fatalities on European Union (EU) roads in 2014 or, to look it another way, roughly 70 people are killed in traffic accidents on European roads every day - and many more are injured. Around 22% of the fatalities are pedestrians, 15% will be motorcycle riders and 8% cyclists. So despite the improvements in road safe
