Vessel and Vehicle Over-height Detection AI Apps

Tackling Over-height Incidents with Unleash live’s AI Apps

In response to the growing number of over-height vehicle incidents disrupting roads, causing congestion, delays, and posing serious safety risks, Transport for NSW (TfNSW) launched an Over-height Truck Taskforce in June 2023. These incidents impact road infrastructure such as tunnels and bridges and have significant economic consequences. Addressing this challenge head-on, Unleash live introduces two AI Apps for Vessel & Vehicle Over-height Detection, designed to enhance safety and reduce incidents across roadways and waterways.
Graphs showing year on year over-height incident data and monthly closure times are shown, with a 32% reduction in total incidents since the task force was introduced, and a 67% reduction in total closure time minutes across the network

Ensuring Safety in Restricted Height Corridors

Restricted height zones—whether tunnels, bridges or low-clearance areas on waterways—pose serious risks when over-height vehicles or vessels attempt to pass. Incidents in these zones can result in structural damage, expensive repairs, operational delays and lives at risk. Unleash live’s AI solutions provide precise, real-time monitoring, ensuring that height violations are detected before they lead to accidents leveraging existing CCTV cameras.

Zone-Specific Detection for Roads and Waterways

The AI App for Over-height detection is tailored to monitor specific zones, such as tunnels or low-clearance bridges. Whether a truck is nearing a height-restricted tunnel or a vessel is approaching a low-clearance bridge, these AI apps ensure continuous monitoring and timely alerts. Early detection allows operators to take swift preventive action, avoiding accidents and damage to critical infrastructure.

Precision through Camera Calibration

Accurate detection is essential for preventing over-height incidents. The AI apps use advanced camera calibration technology to ensure precise height and distance measurements. This high level of accuracy minimizes false alarms, ensuring that alerts are triggered only by genuine risks.

Customizable Height Thresholds

Different zones have different height restrictions based on their structural limitations. Unleash live’s AI apps allow users to set customizable height thresholds for various areas, ensuring the system is perfectly calibrated to each location's requirements. This adaptability guarantees timely alerts and accurate reporting when an over-height vehicle or vessel approaches a restricted zone.

Real-Time Alerts and Reporting

When the system detects a height violation, it sends real-time alerts to the relevant personnel, enabling immediate action. These alerts can be customized based on urgency and priority, ensuring that the right team is notified to respond promptly and prevent incidents.

Why Unleash live’s Over-height Detection AI Stands Out

  • Enhanced Safety - The AI apps help prevent dangerous and costly accidents by providing real-time monitoring of restricted height corridors.

  • Customizable and Accurate - Operators can tailor height thresholds to match specific restrictions, while camera calibration ensures precise detection and fewer false alarms.

  • Versatile Applications - Unleash live’s solutions are ideal for road operators, transport authorities, port managers and municipal agencies overseeing critical infrastructure.

With Unleash live’s Vessel & Vehicle Over-height Detection AI apps, managing restricted height zones becomes seamless and efficient. These innovative tools empower operators to enhance safety, minimize risks and prevent expensive accidents through real-time insights and actionable data.
