Smart Cities Solutions
By 2050, it is estimated 60% of the world's population will live in cities (source TechRepublic.com). Smart Cities use intelligent video and other sensors to detect the movement of people and vehicles and issues affecting cities such as vehicle accidents, traffic jams, overflowing garbage bins, streetlight outages, and road quality issues. The data from these sensors can be used to improve the lives of citizens and visitors and ensure sustainable cities. Optimizing traffic flow of people and vehicles including quickly finding parking ensures a great experience and minimizes air pollution. Street and store traffic statistics can provide building owners with information to properly price their lease spaces. Emergency responders can leverage the real-time and historical information to ensure the appropriate response to security and safety events. PureTech’s AI video analytics can be used to address many of the detection needs of smart cities.
