Transoft Solutions and Region of Durham Detecting Road Safety Issues in Real-Time with AVIN

The AVIN project will extend the core capabilities of Transoft’s automated road safety solutions to allow collision courses between road users to be predicted in real-time so that potential crashes can be detected in advance and avoided. And to further enhance the prediction accuracy and computation efficiency, AI will be moved from the cloud to the edge to accelerate advanced collision warning time for users. Additionally, by monitoring and understanding the patterns of these near-misses, a system for forecasting long-term safety problems will also be included. This data informs planners when allocating road safety budgets and solutions.
