Sansi LED: Sustainable LED Lighting and Integrated LED Display

Innovative Collaboration for Smarter Infrastructure

Sansi LED and Huawei have once again joined forces, unveiling a groundbreaking joint solution for smart tunnel management.

Following their successful launch of the “City Smart Lamp Post” solution earlier this year, the two tech giants introduced an advanced “Intelligent Tunnel Solution” at the Huawei Full Connect Conference 2023.

This initiative leverages the integration of mechanical and electrical IoT, cloud-edge collaboration, and digial twin technologies to create a state-of-the-art, all-weather smart tunnel management system.

Why Smarter Tunnel Solutions are Essential?

1. Enhanced Safety: Smart tunnel solutions adapt to various scenarios, ensuring better and safer driving experiences.

2. Energy Efficiency: They significantly reduce energy consumption by activating lights only when needed.

3. Reduced Maintenance: These solutions require less maintenance, decreasing operational disruptions and costs.

Challenges of Traditional Tunnel Lighting

The tunnel’s traditional lighting system, active 24/7, struggled to adapt to varying weather conditions. Constant brightness caused glare, making the road difficult to see, while reflective surfaces further disoriented drivers.

Compounding these visibility issues, the system’s lack of intelligent management led to unnecessary energy consumption and higher operational costs, as lights remained on even during off-peak hours. Frequent maintenance problems and the need for manual interventions often disrupted traffic flow.

Moreover, during extreme weather conditions, several lights short-circuited, plunging parts of the tunnel into darkness and endangering drivers.

These challenges highlighted the urgent need for adaptive, efficient lighting solutions that enhance safety, reduce energy use, and lower maintenance costs.

Sansi LED’s Role in Advanced Traffic Management.

The intelligent tunnel solution, developed by Sansi LED, is designed to tackle traditional challenges in tunnel lighting and management.

Leveraging advanced technologies, it offers comprehensive solutions that ensure optimal functionality and reliability. The integration of mechanical and electrical IoT, coupled with cloud-edge collaboration, facilitates real-time data processing and adaptive responses.

Digital twin technology creates a virtual replica of the tunnel infrastructure, enabling continuous monitoring and predictive maintenance. This innovative approach not only enhances operational efficiency but also significantly improves the overall safety and resilience of the tunnel system, setting a new standard in traffic management.

Proactive Weather Management: 95% Operational Stress Reduction

The intelligent tunnel solution, leveraging edge computing and IoT gateways, precisely senses and processes climatic changes, transitioning from traditional reactive emergency management to proactive prevention.

This approach offers a safe and efficient lighting management system, ensuring traffic safety even under adverse weather conditions. Compared to traditional methods, this system reduces operational stress by 95%.

Innovation Driving Sustainability: 40% Energy Reduction

A standout feature of the joint solution is its ability to deliver efficient and sustainable lighting.

Using radar and video data to control traffic flow and lighting, the system ensures lights are only active when needed, achieving a remarkable 40% reduction in energy consumption.

Additionally, the application of digital twin technology enables real-time energy monitoring and intelligent management, further enhancing operational efficiency and sustainability.

Efficient Labor Management: 60% Workforce Reduction

Utilizing digital twin technology for tunnel energy consumption monitoring, the intelligent solution constructs a sensory network to collect terminal data.

This technology enables visual management and intelligent energy statistics, ensuring real-time monitoring and green control of energy consumption.

Compared to traditional methods, this system reduces the need for manual labor by 60%.

Transforming Tunnel Management

This collaborative effort between Sansi LED and Huawei marks a significant leap forward in tunnel management.

By providing a comprehensive solution that integrates environmental sensing, edge computing, and intelligent maintenance, the system not only simplifies tunnel operations but also enhances safety and reduces costs.

The intelligent tunnel solution promises to transform tunnel management, paving the way for smarter, more efficient, and safer transportation infrastructure.

A Vision for the Future

Looking ahead, Sansi LED and Huawei plan to expand their collaboration beyond smart tunnels to encompass a wider range of smart city and intelligent transportation applications.

Their joint efforts aim to build a connected, intelligent world where urban infrastructure is seamlessly integrated, efficient, and environmentally friendly.

Commitment to National Transportation Goals

Aligned with the Chinese government's “Outline for Building China's Strength in Transportation,” this collaboration underscores a commitment to advancing intelligent transportation systems.

By continuously innovating and developing smart solutions, Sansi LED and Huawei are contributing to the creation of a safe, green, and intelligent transportation network, supporting the nation’s vision of becoming a global leader in transportation infrastructure.
