Description: In the context of continuously increasing demands on the quality parameters of the transport system and the need to reduce its externalities, current technological possibilities based on AI and machine learning are capable of more efficiently utilizing the potential of data sets generated by sensor infrastructure that captures traffic characteristics in real time. Real-time data on the occurrence, direction, and speed of objects in the traffic flow within road infrastructure conditions make it possible to use available communication interfaces for the adaptive organization and management of traffic with the aim of achieving optimization and reducing the level of externalities. The variability in the design of sensor devices and systems significantly affects the usability of the collected data within advanced algorithms, AI, IoT, and machine learning models, creating barriers to fully exploiting their potential in meeting one of the priority areas of RIS3 focused on smart mobility services and transport systems. In the case of sensor ICT, their effectiveness depends on their application in solving traffic-engineering or optimization tasks in transport.

Objective: The conceptual intention sets as one of its key project objectives the investigation and development of an ICT technology prototype that enables data collection with the required level of quality and granularity for use in advanced data systems with high added value. The interdisciplinary cooperation of the project team members takes place during the definition of requirements and parameters for creating the prototype, for which the testing phase can begin first in laboratory conditions and subsequently in real traffic conditions. The insights gained from testing are promptly incorporated into modifications of the prototype until the target indicators of the testing process are achieved.

Project Results: The outcome of the research process will be a functional prototype of a sensor-based ICT system that meets the requirements and standards for implementing pilot projects in line with Smart City and Smart Industry concepts. Research into the potential use of sensor devices as functional components of more complex technological systems represents an appropriate format for presenting the project’s results in the context of its long-term sustainability, with a clearly defined aim of ensuring high-quality inputs for the existing architecture of traffic-engineering data.
