“5G with its low latency and whopping bandwidths would open up great opportunities where a network based decision making was prohibitively inappropriate, since machines cannot make quicker decisions against the latency and the outcome would be a catastrophe!

At GreenAct Innovations, we believe and put forward network enabled fully autonomous vehicles as a necessity and not as a luxury for India, considering high vehicle density, unpredictable road conditions and driving habits. 5G with Edge Computing throws open immense ease on the road for the commuters. While back-ends are already on Cloud, 5G will extend data centres anywhere.

AI and Deep Learning/ML are going to make driving a smoother and safer experience. We propose locally governed centralized control zones on the road like Cellular Zones, which can manage Emergency and Priority Traffic. This will avoid any vehicle collision while maximum possible speed is achieved through 100% predictable vehicular movements and it will make the traffic cleared faster than what we imagine today.

In a sociological impact, we expect more public transport rather than private vehicles in this system. Predicted capacity analysis is going to generate additional revenue through maximum utilization and zero wastage. Big Data analytics is going to play a creative role here.”
