Or worried about the dangers of jaywalking in busy urban areas? You're not alone. Every year, thousands of pedestrians are injured, countless hours are lost, and billions of gallons of fuel are wasted, highlighting the urgent need for smarter transportation solutions.

💡 Try the Smart Intersection Sample Application! This innovative solution leverages Intel® Edge AI components to tackle these challenges head-on. With multi-sensor analytics, it offers:

• Multi-camera object tracking for seamless monitoring across different perspectives, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
• Scene-based analytics with intuitive map-based regions simplify the work of integrators, enabling straightforward incorporation of events and counts into dashboards and business applications, making intersections safer and more efficient.
• Real-time insights are delivered via MQTT, providing actionable data for enhanced traffic safety and monitoring.

Did you know that pedestrian injuries account for a significant portion of urban accidents each year? With jaywalking being a major contributor, the need for intelligent traffic management is clear. Our solution empowers cities to make informed decisions, reducing risks and improving flow. A recent study done in India claims that 30% of the Traffic fatalities occur because the Ambulance is not able to reach the hospital in time. Rather than guessing and planning to deal with the dynamic traffic flows, this solution could be the critical initial step towards understanding traffic and making green corridors available for emergency responders.
