OUTPUT DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240135806 titled 'OUTPUT DEVICE
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an output device with a processor that can predict congestion levels at a target site on a specific day based on a satellite image of the site captured on a related day.
- The processor receives information about the target site and day.
- It acquires a satellite image of the target site captured on a related day.
- The processor then outputs data indicating the predicted congestion level at the target site on the target day based on the satellite image.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in various fields such as transportation, urban planning, and event management to predict and manage congestion levels at specific locations on particular days.
Problems Solved
This technology helps in predicting congestion levels in advance, allowing for better planning and management of resources to mitigate traffic congestion at specific sites on specific days.
Benefits
