  • Patent number: 12266261
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for managing traffic rules. In one embodiment, a method of managing traffic rules can comprise generating or updating a semantic map layer based in part on positioning data obtained from one or more edge devices and videos captured by the one or more edge devices. The method can also comprise generating or updating a traffic enforcement layer on top of the semantic map layer. A plurality of traffic rules can be saved as part of the traffic enforcement layer. The method can further comprise generating or updating a traffic insight layer based in part on traffic violations or traffic conditions determined by the one or more edge devices or the server. The traffic insight layer can adjust or provide a suggestion to adjust at least one of the traffic rules based on an impact analysis conducted by the traffic insight layer concerning the traffic rule.

  • Patent number: 12112553
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and devices for detecting traffic lane violations. In one embodiment, a method for detecting a potential traffic violation is disclosed comprising bounding a vehicle detected from one or more video frames of a video in a vehicle bounding box. The vehicle can be detected and bounded using a first convolutional neural network. The method can also comprise bounding, using the one or more processors of the edge device, a plurality of lanes of a roadway detected from the one or more video frames in a plurality of polygons. The plurality of lanes can be detected and bounded using multiple heads of a multi-headed second convolutional neural network. The method can further comprise detecting a potential traffic violation based in part on an overlap of at least part of the vehicle bounding box and at least part of one of the polygons.

  • Publication number: 20230283753
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for detecting traffic violations using one or more mobile detection devices. Videos captured by one or more mobile detection devices can be processed on the mobile detection devices to extract data and information concerning a potential traffic violation involving a vehicle and a restricted road area. The mobile detection devices can transmit such data and information to a server configured to make a determination as to whether a traffic violation has occurred by comparing the data and information received from the mobile detection devices.

  • Patent number: 11628917
    Abstract: A submersible system is provided having a submersible launch vessel that sends instructions from a mission controller to deploy one or more deployable systems for one or more underwater operations. The submersible launch vessel is submerged within a waterbody. A submersible power supply powers the submersible launch vessel and the one or more deployable systems. One or more communication devices is in communication with the mission controller, and the mission controller is located in one of a remote or a local location relative to the submersible launch vessel. The one or more deployable systems, via the one or more communication devices coupled to the submersible launch vessel, are remote controlled by the mission controller to execute the one or more underwater operations. Also, information associated with the one or more underwater operations including telemetry data is transmitted to the mission controller from the submersible launch vessel.

  • Publication number: 20220351525
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for alleviating traffic congestion within an enforcement zone. In some embodiments, a system for alleviating traffic congestion within an enforcement zone comprises a server and a plurality of edge devices coupled to carrier vehicles deployed within the enforcement zone. The edge devices can be configured to capture videos of vehicles that may be subject to the traffic congestion pricing policy and to determine their locations, license plate numbers, and certain vehicle attributes using certain sensors on the edge devices and deep learning models running on the edge devices. The edge devices can also be configured to transmit evidence packages to the server concerning such vehicles. The server can be configured to evaluate the evidence packages received from the edge devices and prepare final evidence packages concerning the vehicles for further review and processing.
