    Artificial intelligence (AI) is already making significant differences in day-to-day transportation management operations across the US, according to emerging technology experts at the recent virtual ITS World Congress. The panellists, brought together by Siemens Mobility’s ITS Digital Lab in Austin, Texas, encouraged transportation departments and public agencies to investigate ways AI and machine learning can make operations more efficient or help them develop and implement actionable decisions in real time.
  • We know that ITS can reduce road deaths - this is a moral issue
    May 8, 2019
    If you live in one of the world’s poor countries you are three times more likely to die in a road accident than if you live in a richer country. This sobering finding comes from the latest World Health Organisation report on road safety (p41). That simply isn’t good enough. As WHO points out, proven solutions are available to improve the chilling statistics. These include better legislation and strong enforcement, of course, but technology must also be part of the mix. This is an economic issue - but it’s
  • Machine vision takes ITS further than the eye can see
    January 5, 2016
    Vitronic’s John Yalda looks at how machine vision has become an integral part of many ITS deployments and why it complements, rather than replaces, ANPR. New and conventional business concepts like online shopping and mail order business are becoming more established in the cultures of fast-growing economies and increasing the demand for flexibility in the freight transportation and logistics industry. Road transport has become the preferred infrastructure for freight forwarding and several studies predict
  • Technology, shifts in behaviour can improve urban transportation, says Conduent
    May 24, 2017
    According to Conduent’s Customer Experience of Urban Travel report that details findings from a survey conducted in 23 cities in 15 countries, although improved infrastructure plays a critical role in reshaping mobility in today’s cities, the biggest factor in improving urban travel is changing human behaviour. Researchers found that transportation selection is based on habit rather than rational choice, noting that respondents around the globe chose driving their own car over other modes of transport for r
