Recently, the inaugural meeting of the Urban Parking Professional Committee of the China Municipal Engineering Association and the first Urban Parking Industry Innovation Forum were held in Beijing. More than 300 people including Li Bingren, former chief economist of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, leaders of relevant departments, leaders of China Municipal Engineering Association, member units of local and municipal parking industry associations, and well-known manufacturers of smart parking and road parking facilities, gathered together to “connect wisdom and operate beautifully” As the theme, explore the road of innovative development of urban parking. Ren Peng, Chairman and CEO of Vzenith Technology, was invited to attend and gave a keynote speech entitled “Practice and Prospect of AIoT Technology in Urban Smart Parking”. Mr. Ren believes that urban parking construction is a people’s livelihood project, which has huge social benefits in promoting the construction of smart city transportation. Urban parking construction requires nanny-style expert services. The first key problem to be solved is “accurately obtain basic parking data”, and combined with more than 10 years of industry experience, the current problems, solutions and future development directions of urban parking are carried out. Detailed introduction.
The following is the record of Mr. Ren’s speech-“Practice and Prospect of AIoT Technology in Urban Smart Parking”. For every 2 parking spaces in the country, there is 1 AI service provided by Vzenith Founded in 2009, Vzenith Technology is an intelligent hardware and algorithm supplier with visual AI technology as the core. The current results can be summarized in one sentence-“For every 2 parking spaces in the country, there is one that provides AI services by Vzenith. “.
Behind the great success is Vzenith’s insistence on “scene-defined products”. By focusing on the development of scene-specific visual perception products,Vzenith has accelerated the promotion of industry standards and greatly improved the parking experience-the opening time is compressed to less than 100ms, and the vehicle identification rate has stabilized over 99.95%. The self-developed PaaS platform (Zhenyun Extreme ) To help over 340,000 intelligent sensing front-end operators realize the remote operation and maintenance of equipment and cross-region IoT.
Urban parking construction must first achieve accurate acquisition of basic data The main difficulty of urban parking construction is that the traffic conditions are difficult to predict, and the parking construction is insufficient in advance; but it also plays an important role in promoting the construction of smart city traffic, which is a livelihood project. Zhenzhi believes that what urban parking essentially needs is nanny-style expert services, and the current urgent need to solve is how to “accurately obtain basic data.”
Throughout the development history of urban parking products, it can be found that none of the early products can obtain accurate parking data. “Geomagnetism + PDA” can only know whether the parking space is occupied. The single-frame capture design of the “first-generation smart video” leads to an incomplete evidence chain, so At the beginning of research and development, Zhenzhi accurately locates products-to ensure accurate data acquisition by realizing “full-process video stream tracking and output”.
Design Ideas of Urban Parking “Scene Defined Product” Adhering to the concept of “Scenario Defined Product”, Zhenzhi found that the main slot of the first generation of low-level video stakes is that the equipment is frequently damaged and the operation and maintenance costs are high. In the past, the problem was often attributed to the deliberate sabotage of the citizens, but in fact it was the lack of product design. Zhenzhi innovatively introduced the anti-riot design (chassis grade IK10, glass grade IK04) and technical alarm (blocking alarm, event alarm) mechanism, which can effectively avoid most external interference. The exclusive fisheye design reduces the deployment cost by more than 50%.
The problem with the first-generation high-mount camera was the difficulty in equipment installation and vehicle information capture and identification caused by the “high altitude”. However, the existing product solutions not only failed to solve the scene pain points, but also brought new problems. For products with the “identification box” as the core, the front-end camera lacks computing power and cannot intelligently optimize the imaging effect, which affects the back-end recognition; security camera modification products mainly rely on the warning line to trigger the camera capture, and the warning line is blocked and there is a risk of missing orders. The high-power fill light of the security camera will also affect the driving of the car owner, and the hidden danger is great. The data shows that the missing order rate of this type of product is as high as 10%.
The front-end comprehensive recognition rate of the product developed by Zhenzhi for urban parking lot scenes is as high as 95%. With 3% PaaS platform calibration and 1% manual intervention, the final recognition accuracy rate is higher than 99%. The smart ISP is equipped with a supplementary light with a power of less than 1W to ensure imaging and eliminate light pollution; customized micro-panels (patent applied for) greatly reduce deployment time by 70% (micro-panels with anti-vibration characteristics to avoid displacement); industry’s first tracking algorithm to mark vehicle trajectories throughout , Effectively solve occlusion and missing orders; The dedicated PaaS platform has six major functions to help operators develop dimensionality reduction and order integration.
At present, the product has been applied in more than 20 cities including Beijing and Qingdao, and it has accelerated its popularization throughout the country. As a market for refined operation, parking lot sceneries cannot be achieved with haste. Therefore, Zhenzhi will continue to uphold the original intention, focus on professionalism, and steadily promote the development of the industry. Parking lot scene automation becomes a trend Looking to the future parking market, autonomous driving will promote the development of the parking industry to the automation of parking lots, and the city’s attention to violations will also make parking have different meanings. As an enterprise dedicated to promoting the development of urban smart transportation, Zhenzhi, with its two major brands “Huoyan Zhenjing” and “Mantong Smart Photo”, will focus on city-level parking and traffic violation control respectively to help car owners across the country park their cars and drive well. car.
