Traffic noise is one of the most common noise complaints. Therefore, reducing traffic noise can have a large impact on the livability within cities. Using Sorama’s noise monitor as a vehicle detection system, allows you to detect loud vehicles and visualize the noise issue.
Our Vehicle Detection System for smart cities, also called the noise camera, improves road safety and makes urban traffic quieter.
The loud vehicle detection solution continuously monitors noisy traffic area’s that cause high levels of traffic noise. It creates valuable insights into the source of traffic noise and actionable data to reduce noise pollution in cities and improve livability.
The ‘noise camera’ or automotive noise detector is the product of a close collaboration between Sorama and Axis Communications. By combining Axis’ smart IP-cameras and Soramas L642 Acoustic Monitors, the solution proved to be able to detect, identify and locate vehicles that produced high noise levels and is now helping to reduce road noise globally.
The data of this road noise solution can be forwarded to local authorities for further enforcement. With the gained insights municipalities can have a proactive approach in making city traffic safer.
Loud vehicles are responsible for a lot of traffic noise. But not all loud vehicles are illegal.
Whether it’s heavy trucks or super cars, the noise could be explained by anti social driving behavior or old asphalt. Enabling cities to adjust the environment to reduce traffic noise.
With todays diversity on the road, it can be difficult to identify the type of vehicle associated with traffic noise. By classifying the vehicles into specific categories such as trucks, caravans or electric vehicles it becomes easier to for instance enforce regulation for transport in a harbor or zero emission zones.
Vehicle counting can be an added value to environmental monitoring against traffic noise. Combining vehicle counting with classification will show data on road use and produce noise within those categories, making the problem solving much more efficient.
1. The acoustic camera pinpoints the loud car and registers the plate, noise level, and location.
2. Law enforcement immediately receives a notification that a vehicle exceeds legal noise limits.
3. Further action can be taken, by creating awareness through sending a warning or a fine to the vehicle’s owner.
The L642 series is connected and operated through the free Listener Platform Dashboard. A user friendly interface for setup and configuration and provides insights into sound pressure levels and customer configurable sound events.
To uncover the full potential of the L642’s Loud Vehicle Detection, you integrate it in your video management software for a holistic traffic management approach.
The Sorama L642V Acoustic Monitor forms the foundation of our Loud Vehicle Detection System. It is equipped with 64 MEMS microphones and an integrated camera.
