Unlike many occupancy systems that rely on overhead mounting, the LC200 sensors wirelessly transmit their detection data in real time, via secure low power radio technology, to a nearby LC201 Sensory Router which feeds the information to the Landscape-Computing mesh network infrastructure, providing intelligence and data mining at the edge of the network. The Landscape-Computing infrastructure eliminates single point of failure and provides secure and correlated data and intelligence to any application via our API.

HIGH ACCURACY DETECTION !With greater than 99% accuracy in occupancy detection, it yields excellent reliability, coupled to advanced low power bi-directional communications between the detector and other components in the system, enabling remote monitoring of the system and battery levels. The LC200 Occupancy System utilizes advanced fusion sensory technology with embedded optical and magnetic sensors, reducing errors due to magnetic interference and providing a high level of accuracy and reliability. Landscape-Computing infrastructure provides intelligence at the edge of the network and enhances the integrity of the system by using advanced signal processing and machine learning algorithms.

LC200 SURFACE MOUNTED WIRELESS SENSOR !The LC200 Surface Mounted Wireless Occupancy Sensor is a robust detection system combining a sensitive magnetometer and a smart optical sensor equipped with a low power secure radio transmitter and a micro-controller.

!The detection combines 3 variables, (1)magnetic, (2)optical, and (3)RF attenuation making the device a robust and reliable, highly accurate detection system. The sensor is packaged in a small hardened plastic IP68 rated enclosure for quick and easy installation in the parking space. !The low power transmission technology combined with its integral high quality battery, ensures an average operational life of 3 years (7 year battery life option available).

LANDSCAPE COMPUTING ACCESS POINT (nBOX), LC203 !The LC203 Access Point is the computing node of the Landscape-Computing mesh network. Each node maintains 2-way communications with up to 160 LC200 sensors via LC201 Router Units. !The Access Point is housed in a small powered cabinet with an externally mounted antenna for the wireless network. It provides the gateway and local data collection point for the LC200 occupancy system and the interface to third party parking management systems via an Ethernet and/or 3G/4G TCP based REST Application Programming Interface (API). With these management systems parking bay occupancy and optimization can be monitored and managed via variable message signs or mobile application devices to direct drivers to available spaces. !The Landscape-Computing platform connects different LC203 Access Point in a mesh configuration to form a computing grid, providing a high-level of intelligence within the edge of the network and a rich API allowing IoT and Smart City service providers to build advanced and scalable applications, while reducing software complexity and eliminating a single point of failure. !The nBox Computing Node can connect with different type of sensors allowing a high level of data correlation.

AN API OF EVERYTHING TO EVERYONE !VIMOC provides an Application Programming Interface (API) that can be used to extend the scope of the platform even further. This way it enables companies to adapt existing services and create new ones to expand their business model into a new universe of Smart City experiences. !The Landscape-Computing infrastructure provides Smart City Service Providers a robust and scalable computing platform to deliver a new generation of applications, and provides city officials, business operators and the public not only intelligence related to parking, but the computing resources to correlate the parking sensory data with a wide variety of additional sensors. This is provided through a dynamic, scalable API that facilitates access to a wide range of sensory data, in-built statistical analysis, and a framework for leveraging the intelligent processing capabilities offered by the VIMOC computing nodes.
