LONDON, Dec. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Valerann, the leading data and traffic management platform, will be launching its Smart Roads Platform at CES.

Working in conjunction with Valerann's IoT multi sensors, it will provide high resolution, real time data about traffic conditions including predicting the potential for accidents and congestion. By communicating this information to drivers, mobility apps and connected vehicles, Valerann's Smart Roads Platform will help to make journeys, safer, more efficient and importantly bring technology to roads - future proofing our largest infrastructure. The Smart Roads Platform has been awarded the 2020 Best of Innovation in the CES Innovation Awards.

There’s been a great deal of hype around driverless cars and the focus has been on building in-vehicle technologies with the belief that the car could operate itself without input from its surroundings. That view is now changing.

Valerann is showcasing its technology in the Great Britain & Northern Ireland Pavilion, Eureka Park, CES, January 7-10, 2020 at Booth 51902 Sands, Hall G.

"There's been a great deal of hype around driverless cars and the focus has been on building in-vehicle technologies with the belief that the car could operate itself without input from its surroundings. That view is now changing," said Shahar Bahiri, Founder and Chairman, Valerann. "There's a real need for new sources of data and a holistic eco-system of technologies that will work together to make our roads safer. And that's the beauty of Valerann's Smart Roads, our solution will reduce risk, improve the customer journey and bring technology to an infrastructure which has remained almost unchanged since the 1970's."

Valerann's IoT sensors are integrated into roads forming a network which gathers and shares real time data with the Valerann cloud, which in-turn uses machine learning algorithms to transform the data into real-time analysis. The network tracks the exact driving patterns and location of each vehicle on the road providing alerts, such as merging vehicles, risk factors and navigation recommendations with lane-by-lane traffic updates, directly to drivers.

In the case of self-driving vehicles, the system will provide resources such as exact in-lane location, detection of out-of-sight risks and enable connection to non-connected vehicles. At CES Valerann will be demoing a user interface of its "Cloud Control Center" app, an interactive dashboard which will provide easy to read data and insights with a filtered urgency level to the driver about their current road conditions enabling them to make faster, informed and effective responses.
