Abstract
connected urban infrastructure that will serve as the backbone for the implementation of enabling technologies and equipment for the transition to a smart city. Three demonstration pilots were installed in the municipalities of Cascais, Loures, and Oeiras, covering 9 intersections. The results show that this solution is suitable for traffic monitoring and will be a source of information for future projects in the studied locations.
According to the United Nations, 68% of the world’s population will live in urban areas by 2050 . This will have a major impact on the way cities will have to plan and run public spaces. Understanding traffic flow insights will be key to optimise mobility in those public spaces. In this project, urban lighting infrastructure was used to test a solution for measuring traffic flow at key intersections. An AI-powered edge computing device was used and installed in public light poles. These devices feature two vision sensors that are used for multiple traffic applications. This project aims to develop a new paradigm of localisable, interoperable, cyber-secure, resilient, distributed, autonomous,
