Harnessing Drones to Improve Traffic Flow

Traffic. It’s one of the most commonly cited frustrations across the globe. It consumed nearly 180 hours of productive time for the average U.K. driver last year. German drivers lost an average of 120 hours. U.S. drivers lost nearly 100 hours. Because time is too precious to waste, RCE Systems — a Brno, Czech Republic-based startup and member of the NVIDIA Inception program — is taking its tech to the air to improve traffic flow. Its DataFromSky platform combines trajectory analysis, computer vision and drones to ease congestion and improve road safety.
