The Smart sensor could be integrated into any given infrastructure, office, home or product to run the machine learning algorithms on

SoNah has developed an optical sensor platform, which can be trained to solve urban challenges like reducing parking traffic and energy consumption of streetlights. The sensors can be flexibly integrated into any infra-structure, office or product.  Based on an algorithms and sensor technology the optical sensor platform solves the parking problem of the city. Sensor data indicates, if the e-charging station is free/ blocked Sensor indicates the utilization of the parking lot.

To drivers, parking is often seen as a necessary evil, and often leads to frustration. The new smart sensor platform saves time, fights the stress and last but not least - reduces emissions (30% of inner city traffic consists of drivers looking for parking). There are two main aims - reduce traffic in cities by up to 30% and reduce energy costs of streetlights by 20%.
