As we’ve seen over the past two articles in our series on intelligent transportation systems (part 1, part 2), the way in which we travel, and the systems guiding and protecting us, are becoming increasingly intelligent and complex, which in turn has enabled us to devise and develop even more applications for the technologies that …
For thousands of years, human beings have relied upon various means of transportation to enable them to move across vast distances of land, sea and air. Nowadays, motorized vehicles in the shape of cars, trains, planes and ships are the mostly widely used forms of transportation, however, with the advent of new, cutting edge technologies, …
5G wireless networks will be with us as soon as 2020 some experts believe and with them they’ll bring a plethora of benefits to various industries and infrastructures around the world. One of the most exciting ways in which 5G wireless networks will be used is within intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and development testing of …
Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) have become an increasingly common part of everyday life. Using a combination of wireless communications networks, Internet of Things (IoT) devices, automation, artificial intelligence, edge and fog computing and various other cutting-edge technologies and frameworks, transportation providers are enhancing and improving both their operations and services. With 5G and autonomous vehicles …
The use of intelligent transport systems, systems designed to enhance and improve transportation and transit through the application of data and communications technology, has slowly but steadily begun to pick up pace throughout the world over the past few years. This is mainly due to advances in wireless and vehicular communications technology that allow data …
In recent years, intelligent transportation systems (ITS) have come a long way. In part, this is due to the help from states and governments in incentivizing the use of these technologies to improve transportation systems. The US Department of Transportation’s (USDoT) Connected Vehicle Pilot Deployment Program entered into its second phase in September of 2016, …
One of the most exciting areas these technologies are featured in is the management and optimization of a city’s, state’s, or even country’s transportation systems, collectively known as intelligent transportation systems (ITS). Intelligent transportation systems are becoming more and more widespread and being trialed and implemented in several different parts of the world, this in …
With the rise of such technologies as the Internet of Things and intelligent transportation systems comes the inevitable question of how will they fit into our ever-changing world? The huge leaps in technological innovation we’ve made have thrown up more and more data about the way we live and work and increasingly this data indicates, …
Background The increasing number of terrorist attacks to public transits has rapidly triggered the awareness of passenger safety. Public transportation like buses and trains in major cities became victimized for bombing. Mass transit operators are urging for a real-time mobile surveillance system to capture what could have been missed throughout the moving buses or subway …
