The solution revolves around a\u00a0<strong>tip<\/strong>\u00a0installed on top of the existing traffic light poles, with two sensors inside facing the surrounding roads.<\/p>\n<p>The smart tip, already given the name of\u00a0<strong>Genius<\/strong>, will capture and process information about the position of available <strong>parking spaces<\/strong>, the presence of people at\u00a0<strong>pedestrian crossings<\/strong>, the number of\u00a0<strong>passengers<\/strong>\u00a0boarding and alighting from buses and trams and those waiting at bus\u00a0<strong>shelters<\/strong>. The metadata are then transmitted in real time to an cloud-based software platform by Envision, which provides useful information to car drivers and public transport network managers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spark-security.com\/it\/ttm-technology-per-la-visione-intelligente\/\">TTM Technology<\/a> brought in the expertise of\u00a0<strong>DPControl<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0<strong>Spark<\/strong> to quickly develop the project concept and turn the <strong>Genius smart tip<\/strong> into reality.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, DPControl trained\u00a0<strong>neural networks<\/strong>\u00a0and automated\u00a0<strong>metadata<\/strong>\u00a0generation and produced the DAXPY platform using Sony&#8217;s IMX500\u00a0<strong>artificial-intelligence-based<\/strong> image sensor. At the same time, Spark took care of <strong>product<\/strong> <strong>engineering<\/strong>, designing the system for assembly and the adjustment of the optics and the various technologies in the\u00a0<strong>Genius smart tip<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11899 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spark-security.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/palosmart-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Palo Genius\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.spark-security.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/palosmart-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.spark-security.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/palosmart-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.spark-security.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/palosmart-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.spark-security.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/palosmart.jpg 1382w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The Genius pole is a model of what a <em>smart city<\/em> effectively means and how new <strong>computer vision <\/strong>technologies can help improve\u00a0<strong>quality of life<\/strong>, by increasing citizens&#8217; security while respecting their privacy, improving the efficiency of public services and exploiting existing infrastructure to optimise operating costs.<\/p>\n<p>Citelum will take care of the physical installation of the tips, and the\u00a0<strong>testing\u00a0phase<\/strong> will begin in June in the centre of the capital.
