Pedestrians and Bicyclists Call for the Innovations of Smart Transportation Technology for a Better Safety and Mobility

Although bicycling and walking were not used extensively as travel modes before, they have been showing a fast increasing trend of being adopted and used for recent years according to transportation data. More people would like to bike or walk to commute, for exercise, or just for fun, due to the well-known health, environmental and economic benefits. This change is transforming transportation towards multimodal systems supporting a more livable,

Presented our Work on smart IoT prototype for transportation at TRB 96th Annual Meeting

We presented our work on a smart IoT prototype for transportation at 96th Transportation Research Board (TRB) Annual Meeting. This technique can be combined with the smart traffic signals to gain more potential in achieving safer and more efficient urban mobility. Making inappropriate driving decisions at signalized intersections is one of the major reasons causing accidents. In this paper, the authors present an integrated in-vehicle decision su

Smart IoT in Transit Service: the Gateway to Improve Public Transportation

Smart Internet of Things (IoT) in transit service has public transits connected to the networks accessible via internet. The networks connect to each other also the external environment to share data picked up by sensors on the transits themselves, offering many benefits to improve public transportation. Supported by the smart IoT connectivity integrated with Artificial Intelligence (AI), various on-board systems for transit vehicles have emerged

Unlocking the Potentials of Smart IoT with LPWA Technologies

Low Power Wide Area (LPWA) Networks are the key unlocking the enormous potential of smart Machine-to-Machine (M2M) applications and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. Experts predict that the global market of LPWAN will grow at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 89.3% from 2016 through 2021. As the technology working virtually with LPWAN, Narrow Band (NB) and Long Range (LoRa) IoT offers a number of significant benefits in terms of costs,

Key Applications of the Smart IoT to Transform Transportation

The applications of the Internet of Things (IoT) have been growing dramatically in recent a few years. According to IDC, the transportation sector will be among the first to see a significant growth from the IoT, and the global IoT market in the transportation sector is expected to reach $195 billion by 2020. The smart IoT is dramatically accelerating the pace of innovation and transforming the way of operations in transportation and infrastructu

Smart Industrial IoT: The Opportunities and Challenges Fostering Innovations Across Industry

As a major trend for the global economy, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) has brought us significant implications on increasing production and growing business successfully with three new approaches: create new business models, foster innovations, and transform workforce. In particular, smart IIoT has the power of fueling breakthrough innovations across industry. Smart IIoT incorporates smart and big data technologies to tackle the sensor

Smart IoT in Transportation and Logistics is the Key Tech to Improve Cities in Motion

Today’s city has a dramatically accelerated pace and rhythm in motion, which requires a greatly improved transportation and logistics service. Many solutions of Internet of Things (IoT) have been proposed to develop the urban mobility and meet the requirements in transportation and logistics from the point of view of smart cities. As IoT has our urban space connected everywhere, it enables us to gain real-time transportation information and to mo

The Smart IoT Brings Us the Greatest Value

We have now entered an era with a new digital revolution, namely, the Internet of Things (IoT). The digital revolution marks the starting of information age. We use the Internet nearly every day. The Internet has turned out to be one of generic ways for us to work together, to share our lives with others, to shop, to teach, to research, and to learn. But the next wave of the Internet is not about people. It is about Things, really? According to t
