City of Stockholm is the largest municipality in Sweden. The organization is responsible for facilitating everyday life for close to 1 million inhabitants. Thanks to the efforts of the City of Stockholm, Stockholm is already considered one of the smartest cities in Europe. In 2020, it will take another big leap in this direction by joining Univrses and Taxi Stockholm to carry out an exciting new Smart City project, Sthlm Virtual City. The objective of this initiative is to use Univrses' world-class computer vision technology to provide the municipality with timely, relevant and actionable data that can facilitate city management and make deployment of resources more efficient.
•
Thanks to our friends at the City of Stockholm ( @stockholms.stad ) for joining us on this new initiative!

Welcome on board, Saeed!
As the need to reduce human contact has evolved due to the pandemic, the demand for technologies that enable high-quality automation and autonomy has skyrocketed. Fortunately for the world, some of the key technologies that enable robust autonomy have been mastered. At Univrses, we are experts in perception - a fundamental part of any autonomous system. One technology that is crucial for perception is multisensor fusion.
•
You can now learn more about this field from Univrses’ Computer Vision Scientist Ernesto Nunes! >> https://univrses.com/case-study/multisensor-fusion-for-robust-egomotion/

Meet SharedStreets, a California-based open source software company and new friend of Univrses. This nonprofit organization has developed a nonproprietary, global linear referencing system that connects information about streets across jurisdictions, companies and governments - making transport data easier to use and understand. In August, a new collaboration including SharedStreets, Drive Sweden and Univrses was set in motion. The aim of the initiative is to make data gathering more efficient, and we do this by combining Univrses’ computer vision and machine learning technologies with the seamless open source infrastructure and methods provided by our colleagues at SharedStreets.
•
Thanks for shaping a smarter future with us!

We are happy to introduce Johanna Thorn, new Product Manager at Univrses! Johanna has extensive experience working with GIS data within Smart City initiatives. Before joining our team, she was a Project Manager for the Traffic Administration at @stockholms.stad . As it happens, Johanna’s work paved the way for Univrses to begin working with Stockholm Stad as part of the Sthlm Virtual City project, together with @taxistockholm earlier this year.
•
In her new role, Johanna will be responsible for the development of Univrses' Smart City product 3DAI™ City.

@taxistockholm is the oldest, largest and most distinguished taxi company in the Swedish capital. As of spring 2020, we have the privilege to call them our project partners. The Company is one of three organizations that form “Sthlm Virtual City”, a unique Smart City initiative that is now taking place in Stockholm.
•
The Taxi Stockholm fleet carries mobile camera units equipped with Univrses’ computer vision algorithms. As the taxis operate in the city, a constant flow of timely, relevant and anonymized data can be accessed. Data that is being sent to our third project partner The City of Stockholm ( @stockholms.stad ) to facilitate city management, and that has the potential to both reduce emissions and make the city smarter and safer.
•
Thanks to Taxi Stockholm for enabling Sthlm Virtual City together with us!

A while ago, we announced that Univrses work on Real-Time Semantic Stereo Matching had been accepted at ICRA (International Conference on Robotics and Automation). The 2020 conference is now coming to an end, and we are proud to have taken part in such an excellent event.
You can now watch Univrses’ Deep Learning engineer Pier Luigi Dovesi's presentation on YouTube! Pier talks about how this technology addresses the problem of spatial and contextual understanding for autonomous navigation. It enables high-accuracy, real-time interpretation of an urban environment using just a mobile device. This, and other technologies we are developing at Univrses, make it possible to detect and localize vehicles, traffic signs, pedestrians and other features needed to manage a city. #3dai #univrses
