NTT Smart Cities Solution leverages IoT edge analytics for public safety. High definition video cameras, sound and motion sensors, and an array of IoT devices are integrated and deployed to monitor a location or venue to create a multi-channel solution. The solution, in turn, provides situational awareness, warnings and alerts to city agencies and venue security teams of incidents as they develop.
The system proactively provides early notification of potential and active public safety incidents to command and control authorities. If the city deems it appropriate they then notify the appropriate first responders. By leveraging advanced analytics including machine learning technologies, the system “learns” normal patterns and detects patterns that appear abnormal. The initial use cases are limited to specific types of incidents that can be detected through video and sound sensor analytics running on edge compute devices as well as social media monitoring. As the system evolves, we expect to expand detection capabilities to detect and alert to a wider variety of incident types.
Our current solution includes technology for “lost person” identification and “vehicle identification”, to assist should an Amber Alert be issued. It also includes wrong way vehicle detection. Future plans could also include facial recognition modules or other advanced detection components and may also include more automated incident response component for greater awareness of the developing situation. +

The Solid Protocol, developed by Tim Berners-Lee, is a decentralized web standard that allows users to store and control their personal data in secure, private data stores known as "Pods." This system empowers users to manage their data independently from applications, defining fine-grained access controls for who can view or use it. By utilizing decentralized data storage, users gain enhanced privacy, data portability, and reduced reliance on centralized platforms. Solid is built on open W3C standards and uses WebID for authentication and linked data technologies like RDF and OWL, allowing applications to interoperate and users to retain ownership and control of their data. The protocol aligns with Web 3.0 principles, enabling more secure, efficient, and user-centric interactions across the internet. +
Cities are facing a crisis. If you ask most Mayors what they want for their cities, they will say “jobs, economic growth, a healthy vibrant and safe community that offers an inclusive high quality of life for all of its citizens.” But to accomplish these things, a city must plan and manage its assets efficiently, to include it most precious asset – its people. +
