Reserved Parking Space with FLOW

🚘 Many companies, especially the ones based in busy areas of cities, have given their employees the benefit of using company reserved parking spots. Imagine that you are one of the employees and come to your spot and it is taken by an unauthorized car. This is very inconvenient, especially if you were running late for a meeting because of traffic. How can you combat this? FLOW can function as a smart parking solution allowing you to get notified when an unfamiliar car is parked in your company parking lot. First, with this knowledge, you can go and try to park somewhere else. Second, FLOW enables you to gather data on the violating car such as its license plate and the duration of stay which you can use either to try and reach the driver or get the police to remove the car. You could also design a reserved parking lot by reading license plates at the entrance with a gate and letting through only authorized cars. These are only some of the solutions possible with FLOW AI-based computer vision framework.

We have prepared a guide to show you how to design a smart parking lot with only 3 operators in FLOW. You can watch the video and read the full guide here:

📥 You can download the FLOW demo kit here and follow along with the guide.

Did you know that DataFromSky provides multiple real-time computer-vision-based solutions?

Dynamic Anonymization – Anonymized video streaming

  Are GDPR or other privacy policies a problem when using video analytics? Not with FLOW! 
 Dynamic anonymization is a new advanced feature in FLOW 1.11. When the objects and their specific parts such as faces and license plates are detected they can be anonymized with a variety of anonymization options. The options include solid color, pixelization, linear blur, and Gaussian blur and you can set the anonymization strength from 1 to 10. You are also able to anonymize whole regions of footage such as housing in the area to increase the privacy of the residents. And the last and very cool bit – you stream the clean anonymized video with FLOW to other devices via RTSP stream. What does this all mean? You can design the anonymization exactly the way you want and provide valuable data and statistics and satisfy your client’s strict privacy policy requirements at the same time.
 Do you want to see it for yourself? Download FLOW demo kit here

TrafficEmbedded unit

EDGE processing is really important for time-sensitive and operations such as perfect adaptive traffic control that requires a to gather and act upon a rich set of data quickly. This data can include a number of cars waiting in each lane separated by categories but also whether any high priority vehicles of first responders have been detected already in the junction or approaching it or detection of blocking vehicles. TrafficEmbedded unit gives you the necessary processing power to gather such data from up to 3 cameras at the same time all in GDPR compliant way thanks to dynamic anonymization. Other applications in traffic include detection of traffic violations such as wrong-way driving, speeding, U-turns, illegal lane change but also gathering on both short term and long term traffic statistics but also parking monitoring and violations or detection of waiting passengers on bus stops.

What makes #TrafficEmbedded special?

💪 The most versatile traffic edge processing powered by NVIDIA Embedded Jetson – XAVIER

📡 Multiple connectivity options – LTE / LORA (IoT) / WiFi

🔧 Easy installation, IP66, antivandal box

🔧 Range of integration options including open API, Webhooks and I/O Interfaces

TrafficEmbedded comes with a lot of add-ons like the LORA module, 5G/LTE modem, and IO expanders for controlling traffic lights, opening gates, or activating LED panels based on the customized video events.

Embedded is only one of the ways to gain access to the power of FLOW AI video analytics. It also runs on smart cameras, centralized servers or in our mobile TrafficDrone units. Learn more on our web!
