Our Smart Junctions AI traffic signal control is to be trialled at some of the busiest junctions in Cambridge to help cut congestion and improve air quality. The 12-month trial will investigate how camera-based sensors and machine learning can be used to optimize traffic signals to improve traffic flow, reduce journey times and help tackleRead More
It’s been great to see the latest incoming coverage surrounding our sensors and how we monitor travel. However, it’s understandable that, without prior knowledge of how this new technology works, some people see us veering headfirst into an all-seeing, omniscient network of “Big Brother” cameras monitoring our every move.

Yet COVID-19 has completely transformed the way we work, rest and play. Perhaps, going back to the way we were before will no longer be an option – but this may notRead More
Artificial intelligence (AI)-powered traffic lights will be trialled in Manchester to assess whether they can efficiently reduce pollution and congestion as part of a £30m investment in 5G technology. The project plans to use intelligent sensors to detect speed, path, journey time and queuing data for vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians travelling along the city’s roads. The sensors, running AIRead More
Managing traffic flow at airport forecourt and access road to minimise disruption. Challenge London City Airport (LYC) is served by a single main road (Hartmann Road) for access/exit by all public vehicles. Congestion near to the junction of Hartmann Road and the A112 can cause a knock-on effect near to the airport buildings, disrupting theRead More
