Deep learning-assisted visual sensing to detect overcrowding in COVID-19 infected cities,Crowded places tend to be a hub for infectious disease transmission. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us that it is necessary to find ways to manage crowded areas to help curtail the spread of infectious diseases. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), such as drones, can detect and record environmental conditions at different heights above the ground in real-time. This makes them ideal for detecting overcrowding and abnormal crowd behaviors, such as riots. Tags:computer newshi tech newshitechinformation technologyInnovationinventionstechxplore.com

Battery electric trucks emit 63% less GHG emissions than diesel, finds analysis,A new study compares the life-cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of electric, hydrogen, natural gas and diesel trucks and buses in Europe. The results indicate a clear pathway to decarbonize the sector: Battery electric models can deliver the greatest emission reductions even when using the EU's average electricity grid mix, which is not fully renewable but will continue to improve during the lifetime of the vehicles.
