Transfer of product rights to Tractis

As TAdviser found out, at the end of September 2021, a new subsidiary, Tractis, appeared in the Sollers group. Learn more here.

Traxis is a subsidiary of Sollers Group, which will develop the competencies of video analytics of passenger traffic for public transport, - explained TAdviser in Sollers Auto. - Our development in the field of video analytics has been transferred to the Company. The corresponding product was developed by Prof-IT. It was decided to focus this promising direction in a separate company.

Presentation of the Tracktice solution

Citymatics, part of Russian the developer and integrator of solutions for, smart cities PROF-IT GROUP has released a solution for intelligent on. video analysts This was transport announced on August 6, 2021 by the Prof-IT Group.

Many municipal and commercial carriers face a shortfall in revenues from the operation of the existing fleet, as well as insufficient efficiency in using transport on the existing route network. One of the commonly used solutions for answering these calls is intelligent passenger counting systems, which provide a high level of control over the occupancy and profitability of ground transport.

The TRACKTICE solution, created by PROF-IT GROUP based on many years of experience in implementing complex projects on, transport is developed on the basis of neural network video analytics, which allows you to expand the functionality of the system using the latest technologies. The system provides almost 100% accuracy of counting regardless of the time of year, illumination and density of passenger traffic, type of vehicle, width and height of passage.

TRACKTICE is an accurate tool for optimizing the route network and provides a real opportunity to increase revenue from the operation of transport.

The functionality of the system is complex, but can be implemented or connected in the form of separate modules: passenger traffic counting, object categorization, integration with the ticket system, video surveillance, re-identification, complex analysis scenarios.

The solution consists of a video analytics software module based on neural network analytics of the video stream with a counting accuracy of up to 99.9%, and onboard equipment built on the basis of high-performance graphics. processor Nvidia All calculations are made directly on board the vehicle, which reduces channel costs by cellular communications 10 times. The hardware and software complex is developed and assembled on the territory. RUSSIAN FEDERATION

The system allows you to use any type of IP video cameras. Thanks to the capabilities of artificial intelligence in the form of a trained neural network, it is possible to classify objects of recognition, counting transported baggage, bicycles, etc., which allows you to flexibly charge trips. With a multi-tariff route, passenger re-identification will allow you to accurately determine the correspondence of the size of the charge for the passenger with the length of the route used by him.

The key advantages of this solution include:

• Processing and storage of data both on board and in the cloud;
• The collected information can be tied to a specific stop on the route;
• The solution can be integrated with third-party equipment, on-board and information systems of the carrier;
• The accuracy of the data does not depend on the lighting, geometric parameters and dimensions of the vehicle and the openings for the passage of passengers;
• The system records attempts to interfere with the operation, damage or connection to the system;
• Integration with the ticket system for end-to-end fare control;
• APK can be used for video surveillance in transport in accordance with the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 969 of 26.09.2016 without changing the design and program part;
• The cost of the solution is an order of magnitude lower than the passenger flow calculation systems presented on the Russian market and is as comfortable as possible, since the solution is Russian and weakly depends on exchange rate differences.

The solution is aimed at a large range of customers: commercial and municipal carriers, manufacturers of vehicles, railway carriers, integrators of transport systems, government agencies and organizations.

{{quote 'We created our product on the basis of a deep study of the problems of urban movement organization and analysis of Russian and world experience in the use of products of this class. Pilot tests carried out on the basis of the rolling stock of one of the carriers confirmed the effectiveness of the system and the demand for the functionality laid down in it. We are confident that the system will help improve the quality of transport services for the population in urban agglomerations, will optimize the route network, increase the speed and availability of transport support for the population in the city, - comments Alexey Khudoleev, General Director of Citymatics LLC. }}

The system will allow centralized planning of the route network with justification of its compliance with the quality standard. It will eliminate duplication of routes, and will ensure the application of the most cost-effective modes of transport on the route. The city will be able to set targets for each route, form a single tariff system and increase the standards of public transport services.
