5 results about "Traffic count" patented technology

A traffic count is a count of vehicular or pedestrian traffic, which is conducted along a particular road, path, or intersection. A traffic count is commonly undertaken either automatically (with the installation of a temporary or permanent electronic traffic recording device), or manually by observers who visually count and record traffic on a hand-held electronic device or tally sheet. Traffic counts can be used by local councils to identify which routes are used most, and to either improve that road or provide an alternative if there is an excessive amount of traffic. Also, some geography fieldwork involves a traffic count. Traffic counts provide the source data used to calculate the Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT), which is the common indicator used to represent traffic volume. Traffic counts are useful for comparing two or more roads, and can also be used alongside other methods to find out where the central business district (CBD) of a settlement is located. Traffic counts that include speeds are used in speed limit enforcement efforts, highlighting peak speeding periods to optimise speed camera use and educational efforts.

Double-end collaborative network-on-chip flow control method and device and electronic equipment

PendingCN120675960ATransmissionTraffic countPathPing
The invention provides a double-end cooperative network-on-chip flow control method and device and electronic equipment, and the method comprises the steps: receiving first flow counting information synchronously transmitted by a destination end through a rapid signal, and determining second flow counting information of a source end, the source end and the destination end are respectively a starting node and an ending node of a complete link in the network-on-chip; estimating the link state of the network-on-chip according to the first flow counting information and the second flow counting information; and controlling the flow injection rate of the source end according to the link state. According to the method, counting information synchronization of a source end and a destination end is realized by utilizing the characteristics of low cost and high speed of a control signal in the network-on-chip, so that the link state of the network-on-chip is accurately estimated, the process ensures that no obvious flow accumulation exists on a path, bandwidth resource waste caused by excessive speed limitation is avoided, and the link state of the network-on-chip is accurately estimated. Quicker and more accurate flow management is supported; and more timely and accurate flow regulation is realized.

An artificial intelligence (AI) based system and method of estimating traffic count

PCT designated stageWO2025177308A3Detection of traffic movementScene recognitionTraffic countAlgorithm
Disclosed herein is an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based system and method of estimating traffic count The method comprises capturing at least one traffic scene in a Field of View (FoV) of an edge device. Further, the method comprises detecting presence of one or more objects within the at least one traffic scene by analyzing at least one frame of the at least one traffic scene, using an object detection process. Furthermore, the method comprises tracking the one or more of detected objects by analyzing at least one consecutive frame with respect to the one or more detected objects until the one or more of detected objects exits the FoV. Thereafter, the method comprises estimating the traffic count based on the tracking of the one or more detected objects.

A vehicle mileage estimation method based on remote sensing image data and deep learning

PendingCN122337003APattern recognitionTraffic count
A vehicle mileage estimation method based on remote sensing imagery and deep learning includes: constructing a self-labeled dataset by dividing high-resolution satellite images into grid cells; estimating vehicle density using a YOLO-based deep learning model, which achieves multi-scale feature fusion through a three-layer pyramid network for accurate vehicle detection; abstracting the urban road network as a graph structure and employing a cross-temporal graph neural network (CrossGraphNet) to build a model of the relationship between vehicle density and speed for accurate speed prediction; and training a semi-supervised graph neural network vehicle mileage estimation model using traffic count data from ground monitoring stations as ground truth. This model combines vehicle density and speed data with road topology relationships and uses a message passing algorithm to accurately estimate vehicle mileage. This invention overcomes the limitations of traditional methods, effectively improves the efficiency and accuracy of traffic monitoring, and provides strong data support for traffic management and planning.

Vehicle detection and classification based on vehicle-infrastructure interaction via existing communication cables

We disclose a vehicle-infrastructure interaction system and method using a distributed optical fiber sensing (DFOS) system that operates using pre-deployed optical fiber communication cables buried alongside or near highways / roads. It provides a continuous stream of information about vehicle traffic 24 / 7 at multiple locations, requiring only a single optical sensor cable to detect / monitor multiple target locations and multiple lanes. This single optical sensor cable measures multiple relevant vehicle information (multi-parameters), such as vehicle speed, wheelbase, number of axles, and tire pressure. This information can be advantageously used to obtain secondary information, such as vehicle weight, as well as overall information about the vehicle fleet, such as traffic congestion and freight volume. Unlike simple traffic counts, our approach can provide counts grouped by vehicle type and load weight. The high temporal sampling rate of distributed acoustic sensing and a dedicated peak detection algorithm for reliably extracting timing information provide accurate measurements.
