Gauzy Ltd. (Nasdaq: GAUZ) (“Gauzy” or the
“Company”), a leading developer and manufacturer of
Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), today announced the
implementation of its cutting-edge ‘Smart-Vision’ Camera Monitoring
System (CMS) on a portion of the city of Paris’s buses, beginning
with the 2024 Olympics. According to Paris 2024 Olympic and
Paralympic Games Organizing Committee and Île-de-France Mobilités,
the key goal this year is to enable every spectator to get to the
Olympic and Paralympic venues using public transport. With an
expected 11.3 million visitors according to Je t'aime, Paris’
official tourism board, including athletes, tourists, and
spectators from around the world, Gauzy's innovative technology
aims to play a crucial role in reducing the risk of on road
accidents to enhance public safety with its products that mitigate
blind spots and optimize drivers' visibility in city buses.
Gauzy's innovative Smart-Vision CMS technology replaces
traditional side mirrors with high-definition cameras and interior
displays, providing bus drivers with a comprehensive view of their
surroundings. The product is currently implemented in city buses by
some of the world’s leading OEMs, such as Man, Irizar, Scania,
Hess, and Van Hool. This advanced system significantly improves
situational awareness, enabling drivers to detect pedestrians,
cyclists, vulnerable road users (VRUs) and other vehicles with
greater ease to reduce accidents. According to a study conducted by
Geneva Public Transport, Gauzy’s Smart-Vision is proven to reduce
costs associated with accidents by up to 40%. "As Paris welcomes
the world for the 2024 Olympics, the safety and efficiency of
public transportation become even more paramount," said Eyal Peso,
CEO and Co-Founder of Gauzy. "Our Smart-Vision CMS technology is
designed to address the unique challenges of urban driving,
particularly in a bustling city like Paris with an influx of
occupants. We are proud to contribute to the safety of the city's
residents and visitors during this significant event."
Gauzy is committed to enabling cities to take a proactive
approach to enhance public transportation, safety and efficiency,
while also considering concerns caused by an increase in
micro-mobility. Paris joins multiple cities worldwide, including
London, Brisbane, and Lyon that have already selected Gauzy's
Smart-Vision CMS to make a positive impact on road safety.
With millions of visitors expected to attend the Olympics and
encouraged to use public transport to navigate between 50 sessions
per day and 25 venues, the enhanced safety measures provided by
Gauzy's technology will be instrumental in managing the increased
demand on public transportation. The deployment of Gauzy's
technology in Parisian buses aligns with the city's commitment to
smart mobility solutions and sustainable urban transportation, and
comes at a critical time ahead of the Olympics.
In addition to improving safety, Gauzy's smart-vision CMS offers
several other benefits, including:
- Enhanced
Driver Comfort: The system reduces driver fatigue by
providing clear and consistent visuals, regardless of weather
conditions or time of day, improving confidence to make real-time,
lifesaving decisions.
- Energy
Efficiency: The aerodynamic design of the CMS reduces
drag, contributing to overall fuel efficiency and reduced
emissions.
- Advanced
Features: The system includes features such as automatic
brightness adjustment and maneuver assistance systems to further
assist drivers.
Gauzy is proud to play an integral role in public safety,
especially at one of the biggest events in the world. Gauzy looks
forward to continuing its partnership with leading bus OEMs and
networks, ensuring cities offer safer and smarter transportation
for all.
