Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has introduced a groundbreaking artificial intelligence (AI) project aimed at cutting delivery bike accidents by 50%. The key feature of this initiative is the use of facial recognition technology installed on delivery bikes.
How the AI Project Works
The system monitors delivery bike riders for signs of distraction, such as:
- Using their phones while riding
- Failing to pay proper attention to the road
By detecting these behaviors in real time, the technology helps identify risky riding patterns that often lead to accidents.
Impact on Road Safety
This project aligns with Dubai’s wider efforts to improve road safety and promote smart city technologies. As the delivery sector grows rapidly, the expected outcomes include:
- Significant reduction in accident-related injuries
- Decrease in fatalities involving delivery riders
- Enhanced protection for both riders and other road users
Leadership and Innovation
Dubai’s RTA is showcasing its commitment to leveraging advanced technologies to safeguard its residents and visitors. This initiative highlights their proactive role in adopting AI-driven solutions for urban challenges.
