Connected Transportation for Big Data Collection

Abstract

Environmental sustainability has always been a driving force in Roman Kuropas’ career. As founder and CEO of Innova UEV, Roman strives to make 100% electric, 4G LTE connected zero-emission vehicles more accessible to universities, corporate campuses and municipalities — entities that are constantly seeking ways to boost their environmental credentials. The vehicles will be rolling platforms for collecting Big Data on traffic patterns, air quality, noise levels, and more. Almost any type of data can be monitored and transmitted since Innova UEV's are a "bolt on" platform for sensor technology.
