autoSense helps improve road safety in cities. The behavior of transport participants is analysed anonymously and the data is made available. This makes mobility more efficient, safer and more convenient for everyone.

There are many challenges to overcome in transport. Millions of hours are spent stuck in traffic every day. Dangerous road conditions or uncontrolled driving often lead to accidents.

To avoid this, vehicle data is a valuable resource. This is because by monitoring and predicting traffic flow and evaluating driving behavior, potentially dangerous road areas can be identified and the appropriate preventive measures can be taken.

Cities and municipalities know where serious accidents occur. By evaluating driving behavior, an extrapolation is created and a heat map shows where these risky areas are located.

Up to now, speed measurements have been carried out over a longer period of time to establish the correlation between speed and accidents. This entails enormous costs for the public sector, which can be significantly reduced by the autoSense solution.

autoSense offers the opportunity to improve road safety in cities.

Because through

  • Monitoring traffic flow
  • Analyze driving behavior
  • Identifying potential areas of an accident

preventive measures can be taken.

autoSense thus contributes to making cities safer and more pleasant places for all transport participants.
