Moving People Smarter: AI for Safer, Seamless Public Transport
Transforming Mobility with Intelligence
Public transport systems thrive when they are safe, efficient, and responsive to passenger needs.
At NCM, we apply AI to help operators and cities understand how people move, optimize accessibility, and enhance overall travel experiences.
Our solutions map passenger flow, improve seating, analyze behavior, and ensure reliability, enhancing security, reducing congestion, and smoothing journeys.

Passenger Flow & Origin Destination Matrices
AI4PT (Artificial Intelligence For People Transport), our proprietary computer vision software for public transport, enables advanced passenger flow analysis by providing:
- real-time counting of travellers both on board and at stops
- the average waiting time at stops
By combining these insights, it generates detailed origin-destination matrices, offering transport operators valuable data to:
- improve route planning
- adjust service frequency
- enhance the overall efficiency of public transportation
-
Seating & Accessibility Management
AI4PT tracks the status of dedicated spaces, providing real-time information on their availability directly at stops.
Managing the occupancy of areas reserved for persons with reduced mobility (PRM) is crucial to ensure efficient public transport operations and to uphold the mobility rights of people with disabilities.
The system also identifies available spaces for strollers, wheelchairs, bicycles, and scooters, helping operators balance comfort, accessibility, and capacity management while delivering a more inclusive travel experience
By detecting these issues before they become visible to the human eye, farmers can intervene quickly and precisely—using targeted treatments, optimizing irrigation, and adjusting cultivation practices—ultimately safeguarding crop health, maximizing yields, and reducing unnecessary use of chemicals and resources.

Passenger Behavior
AI4PT detects unusual passengers behavior like:
- Damage to seats, walls, or vehicle equipment
- Conflicts with other passengers or with the driver.
- Use of alcohol or drugs
- Improper use of seats reserved for persons with reduced mobility
- Distractions caused to the driver while driving.
- Fare evasion, such as missing ticket validation or irregular access.
These capabilities help maintain a safer, more respectful, and compliant travel environment for all.

Security & System Reliability
Self-Diagnosis of Video Surveillance:
Automated health checks continuously verify the status of cameras and sensors, ensuring full functionality at all times and instantly reporting any malfunction or tampering attempt.AI-Powered Predictive Maintenance: Advanced algorithms process operational patterns and usage data to predict potential failures before they occur.
This proactive approach minimizes downtime, extends the lifespan of assets, and ensures safe, reliable, and uninterrupted transport operations.
