先进交通管理系统的新阶段
At a time when cities across the globe are brainstorming innovative ideas and technologies to emerge as Smart Cities, strong emphasis needs to be laid on traffic management systems as well. 在这方面, organizations active in the Smart Cities market have devised myriad products which enable monitoring, 对城市交通的控制和运行进行了优化, 集成智能方式.
Traffic violation and incident detection, vehicle counters, and classifiers are just a few of them. These systems are further monitored and controlled through a centralized platform, 哪个是城市的神经中枢. Collectively, these systems form what is known as an Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS).
尽管ATMS能够有效地管理任何城市的交通, 这种方法也有一定的风险. 例如, there are chances that the field ATMS equipment may get damaged or tampered with- either by human activity or 从 natural events such as storms or earthquakes. 这些事件也可能导致产生不准确的记录, leading to errors while reducing the efficiency of the ATMS at the same time. Such things also lead to increased operational costs for the city’s traffic department, 逐步使atm技术由利变为害.
One plausible option to overcome this problem is to deploy emerging technology options like augmented reality (AR) in managing the traffic movements across the city. AR has witnessed rapid growth in present time and is continuously breaking new grounds in a variety of sectors.
关于交通管理系统, AR can be used to avoid road accidents while surveying the traffic conditions subsequently. This idea can be turned into reality by means of AR Head-Up Displays (HUD). To implement this approach, all we need is cooperation 从 the citizens. 下面的例子可以更好地理解这句话:
假设一个人正在开车，戴着AR HUD设备. One of the challenges which the driver might face is the need to change lanes to pass the car in front of it. 当一个更大的车辆, 比如卡车, 在汽车前面开车吗. 在这些情况下, the software programmed into the HUD shall enable the driver to see thermal imagery of the vehicle(s) moving ahead. 通过使用适当的技术, the thermal imagery can be visualized either on the HUD glasses or any screen installed within the car.
The thermal imagery shall further help the driver in deciding whether to change lanes, 因此避免了任何可能的交通事故. They may even be programmed to send snapshots of thermal imagery obtained by a specific HUD device may even be sent to the Traffic Management Centre (TMC) by equipping the HUD device with GPS or similar device.
This approach shall also transmit the position of HUD displays in real-time to the TMC, which shall determine traffic conditions by calculating the time for which a specific HUD display is transmitting its location. 作为下一步, all such HUD devices transmitting their location will further be mapped on a GIS map of the city. It may also be able to access the images received 从 the HUD device for monitoring purposes. 如果传输时间超过正常水平, the particular stretch of road shall be marked with different color showcasing traffic congestion. 因此, the TMC may then initiate relevant actions to restore normal traffic conditions, 证明了整个系统的主动功能.
在这方面也进行了类似的研究活动 Lotfi Abdi. 本文提出的解决方案是对上述工作的改进, 它的名字有两个主要优点. 首先, this approach intends to make urban mobility and transit a pleasant and comfortable experience for the citizens. Another major advantage of this approach is that it will prove to be highly cost effective for the relevant authorities, 从而重新定义流量管理的“移动”方式.
