Goal and impact

This involves scientific research with AMS Institute and TU Delft. The algorithm is used to convert signals coming into the mmWave sensor into a number representing the of the number of people in front of the sensor. This is intended to have a more privacy-friendly alternative to pedestrian counting cameras in the city. There is a pilot setting at the Marineterrein.

Considerations

This is intended to have a more privacy-friendly alternative to pedestrian counting cameras in the city.

  • The algorithm uses sensor data to make a calculation for predictions of slipperiness risks. These predictions are used to determine where to grit (preventively), in consultation with meteorologists. In addition, the algorithm can issue various alarms, for example when there is a chance of wet road sections freezing.
