Sony Semiconductor Solutions is showcasing its edge AI sensing technologies at the ITS World Congress in Atlanta, highlighting two municipal projects in the United States. These deployments aim to improve safety and urban mobility through advanced data-driven monitoring.
In Lakewood, Colorado, Sony’s intelligent vision sensors are being used to reduce collisions and near-misses at intersections and corridors. The system detects vehicle movements and pedestrian crossings in real time, even in low-light or adverse weather conditions, supporting the city’s Vision Zero safety goals.
In San José, California, a traffic management pilot is using Sony’s AI sensing technology to collect continuous, high-accuracy data on vehicle speeds, travel directions, as well as pedestrian and bicycle activity. This approach provides a clearer understanding of traffic patterns than traditional short-term surveys. The system has shown over 95 percent accuracy and could also support other applications such as curb space management, illegal dumping detection, crosswalk safety and infrastructure protection.
Sony’s platform is built as an open ecosystem, allowing collaboration with AI, camera and IoT partners to create scalable smart city solutions. Both deployments are being demonstrated at Sony’s booth during the event.
