Public Safety Enhancement
Cities can improve safety by installing privacy-preserving, low-power AI-enabled cameras on traffic lights to prevent incidents and respond in real time to traffic violations and safety concerns.

Smart Traffic Operations
Traffic operators gain real-time monitoring of street curbs, receiving alerts and analytics related to cars, bikes, and pedestrians for optimized traffic flow management.

Intelligent Curb Management
City infrastructure companies get accurate on-street parking occupancy and analytics for curb management to reduce traffic congestion and vehicle emissions.

Cost-Effective Parking Solutions
Parking lot operators can reduce installation and operational costs by replacing traditional magnetic sensors with AI-powered vision systems for off-street parking management.
