About Challenge

Call-for-Solutions - Enhancing Traffic & Road Operations Using On-board Bus Cameras

With an estimated 6,000 buses operating on our roads, LTA is exploring ways in which cameras onboard these buses could be leveraged to support new applications to expand our current detection capabilities to improve safety and operational response time.

ENHANCING TRAFFIC & ROAD OPERATIONS USING ON-BOARD BUS CAMERAS

LTA has an estimated 6,000 buses operated by the Public Transport Operators (PTOs). The buses are installed with cameras that record video footage from multiple perspectives during bus service hours. The recorded videos are used to support investigation upon an incident occurrence and for the safety of passengers. They can be retrieved manually from the on-board recorder.

 

What We Are Looking For

General Requirements:

i. Explore the feasibility to use existing bus cameras for potential areas of road applications listed in Section 2;
ii. Encompass video analytics (VA)/artificial intelligence (AI) capability to be able to scan
and automatically detect the use cases under Section 2;
iii. Propose new deployable camera and AI on buses with equivalent or wider FOVs if
existing bus cameras are not adequate to perform the roles;
iv. Log the type of detection, capture an image for reference, geotag the location
whenever detected, monitor the rectification status if it is a defect, and escalate alerts

to LTA officers where necessary.
