subway stations, shopping malls, and airports. Our daily contact with escalators is very high. While it brings us convenience, it also hides some problems due to improper use or excessive passenger flow. Danger. Retrograde, congestion, pushing large luggage or strollers can all cause accidents, so will the future escalators become smarter and smarter, stifling risks in the cradle?
On December 2, SenseTime, an artificial intelligence company, and Schindler Schindler, an escalator and other related service providers, signed a strategic cooperation. The two parties jointly developed an escalator safety intelligent response system.
How to avoid risks and accidents with "AI + escalator"? On the escalator, there are hidden dangers in scenes such as the elderly falling down and the children playing retrograde. Several cameras arranged above the escalator can capture these dangerous actions in time and issue real-time warnings to the on-site staff. The staff can be the first Time to react.
At the entrance, the system can provide voice dissuasion to passengers pushing strollers, large luggage and wheelchairs on the stairs and other safety hazards. In the escalator area, when a passenger is found to have fallen down, the system can promptly alert to stop the elevator, or provide real-time prompts for unsafe behaviors such as retrograde; and when the system detects that there are no passengers in the escalator area, it can also notify the staff to perform remote Stop elevators to reduce operating costs. At the exit, the system can detect the density of people in the area, and when it finds that there are too many people, it can issue an early warning in time to prevent accidents such as congestion and trampling.
Schindler escalator safety intelligent response system based on Shangtang AI technology
This system mainly uses Shangtang technology object detection, behavior recognition, density analysis and other AI technologies, which can cover escalator entrances, escalator areas and escalator exits The whole scene.
The traditional management model is difficult to detect and deal with potential safety hazards and elevator accidents in time. Based on Schindler’s experience and SenseTime’s technology, both parties are engaged in pre-prevention, intervening during the incident to retrospective after the incident, and carrying out intelligent and automated management of the entire process, making the escalator smarter and smarter, allowing shopping malls and airports that use Schindler’s security intelligent response system And other large public places to minimize escalator safety accidents.
In addition to escalators, the century-old Swiss company Schindler also provides related services such as elevators and moving walks. In its escalator assembly workshop in Jiading District, Shanghai, hundreds of escalators are in the process of orderly assembly. Schindler’s largest escalator factory in the world will be shipped by containers to the radiation area of the Chinese factory after the products are off the line. At present, the safety intelligent response system developed with SenseTime is mainly used in escalators in China, and both parties will have more scenarios and space in the future.
SenseTime and Schindler China signed a strategic cooperation agreement
to develop new AI application scenarios with more industry leaders is SenseTime's consistent development thinking. Safety and quality are regarded as two important core values by Schindler. This time, both parties Cooperation is in line with the needs of enterprises to improve safety. "Shangtang Technology is committed to becoming an enabler of enterprise intelligence upgrades. Cooperating with like-minded global industry leaders like Schindler, we will create a safer and more efficient new generation of intelligent escalator safety systems, and provide a more humane Intelligent products and services." Said Shi Jun, Vice President of Strategic Planning of SenseTime and President of Asia Pacific Business Group.
Smart escalators are an indispensable part of a smart city, and "AI + escalator" is another important practice. In the future, SenseTime will empower more traditional industries, help enterprises realize digital transformation and intelligent upgrade, reduce costs and increase efficiency, and accelerate the value innovation of more traditional businesses.
