Une parmi plusieurs mesures intelligentes de la ville contre Covid-19
Depuis le 18 juillet, Leuven teste une nouvelle solution afin de gérer le nombre de visiteurs dans l'une des annexes de sa bibliothèque publique. En tant que projet pilote contre la propagation de Covid-19, l'application Telly comptera le nombre de personnes présentes dans les salles - une tâche essentielle qui s'avère trop difficile pour les êtres humaines.
Telly est une caméra intelligente qui enregistre le nombre de personnes dans un certain espace. Il mesure le flux entrant et sortant dans la bibliothèque via un petit appareil à l'entrée.
Sur un écran tout le monde peut suivre le nombre de personnes présentes et quand le nombre maximum de visiteurs a été atteint. De plus, le système analyse les données conformément aux directives de confidentialité via une application IA. Cela fournit aux autorités locales des statistiques qui cartographient les pressions et prédisent les moments de pointe dans le temps.
La mesure sera en place à titre pilote jusqu'au 31 octobre dans la succursale Wilsele de la bibliothèque publique. Il est mis en œuvre via Cronos Leuven par Edgise, une start-up basée à Leuven travaillant sur des applications numériques.
« C'est une excellente opportunité pour la bibliothèque d'expérimenter des applications numériques et de les rapprocher du visiteur. Tous les visiteurs curieux sont les bienvenus, mais ils sont comptés », explique Elise Gazenbeek, responsable de l'accueil de la bibliothèque annexe.
La bibliothèque est un espace ouvert et accessible où le nombre de visiteurs est en constante évolution. Par mesure de précaution pour limiter la propagation du coronavirus, le nombre de visiteurs a été limité.
Malheureusement, la structure du bâtiment de Wilsele ne facilite pas le suivi du nombre total de visiteurs. Jusqu'à présent, des paniers d'achat ont été utilisés, mais on pense que Telly est capable de rendre les choses beaucoup plus faciles.
