Urbanization and densification around the globe are growing. In 1950, only 29% of the world population lived in an urban environment—this number is expected to reach 57% by the year 2025[1]. This demographic shift from rural to urban settings has created an increase in traffic congestion and has put a heavy burden on transportation infrastructure.
Road users depend on smoothly flowing traffic to save time, keep fuel costs down, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions and pollution. Yet municipalities around the world are grappling with traffic congestion, or will be in the near future.
LeddarTech with it LeddarTM d-tec product offers the combined benefits of non-intrusive vehicle detection with very accurate 3D performance in all weather conditions.
Since the LeddarTM d-tec product is a 3D sensor, it is immune to the shadowing and headlight glare effect. The result is reliable vehicle, motorcycle and bicycle detection for optimized traffic management.
Better traffic management contributes to healthier communities and helps municipalities retain current residents, attract newcomers and reduce economic costs. Whatever the level of congestion in your area, optimizing traffic flow with existing infrastructure is a key objective for achieving sustainable mobility and minimizing your community’s ecological footprint.
See how the LeddarTM d-tec can help you answer the traffic management needs in your community.
