Hikvision’s appearance at Intertraffic Amsterdam 2024, a global trade fair for mobility and traffic technology, saw the company unveil a range of traffic, transport, and parking management solutions and products powered by Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) technology, promising to enhance urban mobility, road safety, and operational efficiency.
A standout feature of the Hikvision display was its intelligent urban traffic solution, harnessing the potential of AIoT to provide comprehensive real-time monitoring, incident detection, and traffic control. This solution intelligently reshapes traffic dynamics, offering a more responsive and data-driven approach to enhance situational awareness and traffic management.
Key innovations in the solution included Hikvision’s radar-video fusion cameras, merging the range perception of radar with the visual perception of video. For instance, the 4 MP Radar and Video Vehicle Detector enhances road safety by issuing early warnings of potential hazards in challenging scenarios like blind spots at intersections and obstacles beyond the visual range.
Hikvision’s All-In-One Traffic Spotter also featured, integrating video, radar, and lighting technologies for improved traffic violation detection. Its streamlined column design simplifies installation.
Finally, Hikvision’s Radar-Linked PTZ Camera was shown, which ensures consistent performance in adverse weather and lighting conditions and reduces false alarms with advanced deep-learning algorithms.
The company also presented its parking management solutions, which combine highly precise license plate recognition and intelligent barrier controls incorporating highly accurate radar sensors. This approach enhances security, reduces the need for manual intervention, and optimises traffic flow across parking areas.
The Global Shutter CMOS* (GMOS) ANPR camera was a new addition to the range. Engineered to seamlessly blend into the environment, it is tailored for discreetly capturing license plates at parking facilities prioritising subtlety.
Attendees were also introduced to Hikvision’s latest public transport solutions, integrating AI-driven analytics with advanced video security, on-site voice broadcasting, and centralised management for enhanced onboard security, improved passenger experience, and operational efficiency for buses and taxis. This included the Four-way monitoring system and the Panoramic Auxiliary System, both designed to reduce blind spots and provide high-definition imaging to enhance driving safety.
“As always, we are continuously expanding our suite of technologies to improve traffic safety and efficiency,” said Nick Wu, Project Product Director at Hikvision Europe. “Our commitment lies in minimising the need for extensive roadside installations by integrating comprehensive perception and robust AI within unified device frameworks. These innovations automate and streamline every aspect of traffic management, from violation detection to traffic flow monitoring, driving safety, and parking management.”
