How AI is Making Bengaluru Mysuru Expressway Safer and Smarter

Hello, Tumblr users! Welcome to our weekly newsletter, where we share some of the latest and most interesting news from around the world. This week, we have a story about how artificial intelligence is being used to tackle speeding on one of India’s busiest highways.

The Bengaluru Mysuru Expressway is a 118.6-km-long highway that connects the two major cities of Karnataka state in southern India. It was inaugurated in 2021 and has been a boon for commuters, tourists, and businesses. However, it has also been a hotspot for accidents, as many drivers tend to ignore the speed limits and lane discipline rules on the expressway.

To address this problem, the police department has installed artificial intelligence-based cameras on the highway, which can capture the number plates of speeding vehicles and generate e-challans (electronic fines) that are sent to the violators’ addresses. The cameras are also capable of detecting other traffic violations, such as driving in the wrong direction, drunken driving, and lane cutting.

The ADGP (Additional Director General of Police) Alok Kumar said that the AI-based cameras had been deployed on a trial basis and that an Intelligent Traffic Management System would be introduced in Mysuru soon. He also said that the speed limit for vehicles using the expressway had been set at 100 km per hour on the right lane, 80 km per hour on the middle lane, and 60 km per hour on the left lane, as per a recent Chennai High Court order.

The police department has also started distributing pamphlets and making announcements at the starting point of the expressway in Mysuru to educate the motorists about the traffic rules and safety measures to be followed on the expressway. The ADGP said that he had identified at least 20 to 25 places on the expressway that were prone to accidents or were posing a problem for the villagers due to the absence of foot overbridges and other facilities. He said that the NHAI (National Highways Authority of India) had invited tenders for crash barriers, foot overbridges, bus shelters, toilets, and proper entry and exit points on the expressway.

The ADGP also warned that if any major accident occurred on the expressway due to negligence or non-compliance of safety norms by the NHAI or the motorists, they would be held accountable and booked under relevant sections of the law.

This is an example of how artificial intelligence can be used to improve road safety and reduce fatalities. We hope that this initiative will inspire other states and countries to adopt similar measures and make their highways safer and smarter.

Electreon Wireless' electric roads in Tel Aviv to charge cars on the go

Israeli startup Electreon Wireless aims to create and build the first electric city road in the world, with their demo project in Tel Aviv. It will form a 2km (1.2 mile) stretch between the Tel Aviv University and their main train station. the concept itself enables EVs to charge while driving, ensuring energy can be fuelled on the go and range is maximized. This is said to be especially important when electric vehicles become fully autonomous.

The demo in tel aviv follows Electreon Wireless’ successful test charge of a Renault Zoe in 2019 as well as an electric truck and trailer in Sweden in mid-2020. The latter is part of Smartroad Gotland, where, by november 2020, copper coils will be laid across 2.5 miles of road on the Swedish island. It will support an airport shuttle service. The coils transmit energy wirelessly to a receiver under the EV, and two-thirds of a mile of road can be laid overnight.

A similar plan is set for tel aviv in mid-august 2020. originally, 1km (0.6 miles) of charging coils were to embedded into the roads but now this has been increased to 2km (1.2 miles). the new plan is with the aim of continuing the electric road from the university to the train station and then on a further route around the city.

Is it really possible? Well it’s already happening. In this video you see a small container of #carbonfiber that was extracted from the #co2 in the atmosphere around the #washingtondc area. This is a long way from solving the #climatecrisis and reducing the #heatwave, #wildfire, #tornado and other #naturaldisasters scientists have attributed to #globalwarming but it’s a start. And it shows that the what is really key now is commercialization. Or all governments agreeing to put tax payers money into the effort. But that process is likely too slow. To the extent it can happen, great, but if it’s possible to ignite an economic engine where the incentive is to remove more co2 then that is likely the best bet. I’m ready right now to start making our skateboards utilizing #capturedCO2 but there aren’t any companies I can buy that material from. #stuartlicht is working on it as part of #carbonxprize and #brentrconstantz from #stanford has a company called #blueplanetltd who might be able to provide materials that could be used for making #smartroads and #protectedbikelanes using their unique process that produces a #carbonnegative product. #instagram is a daily habit for so many people which is why I’m having this conversation here. If you are reading this send me a message with a thumbs up. And if I should move this discussion elsewhere I’m up for suggestions.

Parere positivo alla prima domanda di autorizzazione alla sperimentazione di veicoli a guida autonoma su strade pubbliche #smartroad

[nibteducation-blog]

Despite the profuse technological enhancement made to the vehicles, mobiles, and cars, we see meager developments to the bitumen roads. There are myriad things that can be carried out on the smart roads which help in innovating and reconstructing the driving experience when it comes to road safety. The masterminds in this sector are trying hard to improve driving experience by innovating various ideas like to use roads to store solar energy from the sun directly and transfer that energy into electricity for homes.
