Intelligent transportation is booming, helping cities to cure "congestion disease"

On July 31, 2015, Beijing and Zhangjiakou successfully applied for the Winter Olympics. If Beijing and Zhangjiakou’s successful bid for the Winter Olympics is a reflection of their “hard power”, then whether the Winter Olympics can be successfully held will test the “soft power” of these two cities. With the smooth economic construction and the improvement of people's living standards, Beijing's traffic congestion problem has become increasingly prominent. Therefore, we have this concern: During the 2022 Winter Olympics, can Beijing's transportation meet the complex and changing transportation needs during the Winter Olympics?

Looking back to the 2008 Beijing Olympics, the once troubled traffic problem has become a highlight of the Olympics. Smooth traffic ensures safe, smooth, convenient and efficient Olympic transportation operations. Among them, intelligent transportation plays a huge role. Before the start of the 2008 Olympic Games, Beijing vigorously built an intelligent transportation system to improve the operating efficiency of the transportation system, solve congestion, ensure traffic safety, reduce traffic pollution, and provide a good transportation environment for the Olympic Games, which has become one of the important conditions for ensuring the smooth holding of the Beijing Olympic Games. It can be said that intelligent transportation is a key factor in the successful hosting of the Beijing Olympic Games, and the Beijing Olympic Games also provides opportunities for the development of intelligent transportation.

Nowadays, increasingly serious problems such as traffic congestion, traffic pollution and traffic safety have made the whole society pay more attention to intelligent transportation. Many cities have begun to build intelligent transportation, and the transportation industry is also developing in the direction of informatization and intelligence. In recent years, the development of the transportation industry has put forward new requirements for intelligent transportation. In particular, the Ministry of Transportation has proposed the construction of comprehensive transportation, smart transportation, green transportation and safe transportation, as well as the whole society's requirements for high safety, high efficiency, and high-quality transportation services. Faced with this challenge, Guan Jizhen, Chairman of the LED Display Application Branch of China Optical Association, believes that it must be solved through the intelligence and value-added of the transportation system.

In the future until the Winter Olympics, as the global economy and urbanization accelerate, the traffic situation will be unpredictable. However, with the development of science and technology, what we should pay attention to is the promotion or leading role of new generation technology in intelligent transportation. First, as the degree of informatization increases, intelligent transportation is increasingly used in traffic control. At the same time, massive traffic information puts forward higher requirements for traffic management and services. Second, it is necessary to improve background data processing capabilities, in-depth mining, and improve comprehensive application levels. For example, new technologies such as big data and cloud computing cannot play a better role without professional knowledge and models of intelligent transportation. Third, the mobile Internet has brought a series of changes to transportation operations, organizational management, and services. These changes may be disruptive to the traditional traffic management model. Fourth, the combination of intelligent transportation and automobile fields, automobiles and the Internet.

The direction of intelligent transportation in the future is still intelligent management and control, intelligent services, road traffic safety and low-status, green and sustainable development. When a reporter asked, what impact will the 2022 Winter Olympics have on the LED industry? Guan Jizhen believes that the Winter Olympics will have a great promotion effect on technology, especially the application of LED displays in intelligent transportation, and creative displays will also receive certain development. Times are advancing and technology is also developing. We will wait and see what role smart transportation will play in the 2022 Winter Olympics!
