Irida Labs Collaborates with SONY Semiconductor Solutions to Deliver Advanced AI-Driven Smart City Solutions

Comments are closed.


Irida Labs, in collaboration with Sony Semiconductor Solutions, introduces a scalable, AI-powered Smart Parking solution designed for real-world deployment in modern urban environments. Built on Sony’s IMX500 intelligent vision sensors and Irida Labs’ PerCV.ai platform, the solution delivers real-time curbside intelligence – enabling cities to monitor parking availability, enforce regulations, and optimize curb usage with precision. This edge-native system is part of a broader Smart Cities suite that supports traffic flow analysis, pedestrian safety, and dynamic curb management, helping municipalities transition to data-driven, responsive mobility infrastructure.
Sony has been at the forefront of image sensor technology for decades and has announced AITRIOS ™, an edge AI sensing platform that maximizes the potential of the IMX500, the world’s first AI-enabled image sensor. Irida Labs is leveraging the AI capabilities of this groundbreaking sensor through PerCV.ai, their powerful Vision AI platform, by bringing their edge Smart Cities SW suite on the IMX500. Together, the companies are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in smart city infrastructure by delivering real-time, actionable insights based on edge Vision AI.
The PerCV.ai Smart Cities suite helps identify traffic patterns, congestion points, and parking violations, while monitoring curb areas for smooth management and incident detection. By capturing and analyzing curbside events, cities can adapt policies to meet evolving demands in mobility, delivery, and sustainability.

At the heart of this collaboration is a scalable, real-world-ready AI-powered Smart Parking solution, that enables cities to:
A comprehensive curbside intelligence toolkit for cities, enabling:

Detection of occupied and available curb spaces, enabling demand-responsive parking policies

Detection of illegal double parking

Classification of vehicles and bicycles to analyze congestion and improve mobility strategies

Real-time supervision of curb zones, including loading areas, bike lanes, and drop-off points

Identification of illegal stops, double parking, and misuse of curb space

Tracking and management of pedestrian flows, jaywalking incidents in crosswalks and critical urban areas
