Infrastructure and Vehicles Monitoring

Our solutions for Smart City

01 | Traffic Lights Monitoring System

The system allows to monitor the work of traffic lights controllers. In case they are not working properly, it provides quick information to appropriate services, that are ready to replace burn lightbulb, fix the program or verify why the traffic controller is out of order. The complete solution consists of dedicated hardware installed in traffic lights cabinets, an application for mobile devices and a web application. The system have been successfuly deployed in the city of Cracow.

02 | Information system for the drivers

Variable message signs (VMSes) play important role in providing the drivers information about detours, traffic accidents, construction sites and let them make better decisions regarding their routes. The system we developed provides a mechanism that allows traffic controllers to send a specific information to selected VMSes via web interface. The information is then processes by our software and send to communication modules of our design installed in VMSes. Then it is send to control units and then to all LED panels installed inside signs. This subsystem have been successfuly deployed in the city of Cracow.

Systems for Visually Impaired and Blind People

Mobility for all

01 | Accessible Public Transport

Modern cities are focused on improving public transport services for their citizens. To make public tranportation more accessible and improve the quality of service we developed a solution that provides up-to-date information regarding vehicles arriving times for the passengers equipped with mobile devices. The abbreviation from estimated time of arrival is computed using modern algorithms that use information coming from various sources. The solution has been patented (EP 07465009.4) and has been successfuly tested in two cities in Poland.

02 | Mobile guide for visually impaired and blind people

The proposed system consists of electronic devices installed in the city that transmits radio signals which allow the visually impaired and blind people to find their geographical position and learn the way to next place en route. The technology has been developed in 2010 long before Bluetooth Low Energy beacons entered the market. The system have been successfuly deployed in the historical royal route in the city of Cracow.

Green transportation

Our response to global problems

01 | Real-time traffic simulator

The outcome of our research is a Cellular Automata Vehicular Traffic Simulator that allows quick verification of different traffic lights algorithms, and different dynamic traffic assignment schemes and to measure estimated CO₂ emission. It is possible to import road network of any City, providing it is available in geospatial information system. Thanks to that it is possible to check which programs for traffic lights help in reduction of CO₂ emission. The simulator is available at https://github.com/naxos-simulator/NaxosSimulator.

02 | Mobile information system for the drivers

Electronic devices equipped with GPS modules and wireless communication means are able to send the position of the vehicle in which they are installed to a central server. Aggregation of such data gives information about congested areas. Our research proved in that in simulated environment, avoiding such areas and selecting detours which shorter travel time results in the reduction of carbon dioxide emission.

03 | Traffic lights information system

Our expertise in the field of traffic lights monitoring helped us in development of an eletronic module that is able to predict with some probability traffic lights change. A dedicated mobile application passes this information to the driver, so he is able to adjust the speed of the vehicle and possibly reduce the emission of carbon dioxide by making the movement smoother.
