Opus Remote Sensing invest +60% of its budget in R&D, which allows us to be always in the vanguard and to anticipate the future. We are continuously improving our products and leading innovative solutions to implement vehicle emissions remote sensing technology further.

Remote Sensing laboratory

We have a world unique laboratory dedicated to the development, certification and improvement of RSD technology. We combine state-of-the-art electronic and optical instrumentation to take the technology to the next level.

We are continuously improving the capabilities and performance of our technology, incorporating state-of-the-art materials and components to make our systems more accurate, robust and powerful. We investigate in latest sensors, spectrometers, electronics and optics to offer the best possible product.

Computer vision

We offer Opus Sensing Drive, to provide the camera with a new artificial intelligence capable of giving all kinds of vehicle parameters by visual analysis alone. We are working on new artificial vision solutions to capture more and better information from road traffic.

5g-connectivity-c-its-opus-rse

5G connectivity and C-ITS

We research new telecommunications technologies to provide our RSDs with new connectivity capabilities. Our 5G research has resulted in sensors that are hyper-connected to the infrastructure, capable of sending data in real time with minimal latency. Our research has resulted in the most digitized devices of their kind and the most data mining capabilities on the market. New research in V2X and I2V turns our RSDs into real-time information systems to inform the vehicle or driver about their emission levels.

Traffic & air quality modelling

We collaborate in different research and innovation projects in which RSD data are exploited to create new traffic and air quality models, including micro- and macroscopic simulation, dispersion modeling and inventory refinement.

Vehicle noise sensing

We collaborate with other technology partners to incorporate the remote measurement of the noise emitted by each vehicle with our RSD technology. In this way, we can identify the noisiest vehicles, as well as the dirtiest. This combined solution has been tested in Florence, Madrid and Barcelona.

Ship and rail emissions

Our core is the remote measurement of road traffic emissions, but we also offer solutions for the remote measurement of emissions from other means of transport, such as trains and ships.

On-going R&D projects

The UNICO SECTORIAL 5G and UNICO I+D 5G programs are funded by the European Union Recovery Fund – NextGenerationEU, as a common response at European level to face the economic, social and health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and whose purpose is to boost convergence, resilience and transformation in the European Union, through the Recovery and Resilience Mechanism, Regulation (EU) 2021/241 of the European Parliament and of the Council, of 12 February 2021. These are programs led by the Spanish Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation, and are aligned with the strategy to boost the deployment of 5G technology included in the Digital Spain 2026 agenda.

Each of these projects is dedicated to different experimental and demonstrative developments, but all of them place Opus remote sensing technologies at the center. The 5G represents a paradigm shift, as it will backbone the connected and ubiquitous use of artificial intelligence and the internet of things, enabling the use of sensors that collect and process information in real time, thanks to the low latency it provides. Thus, Opus RSE will develop new prototypes, communication architectures and systems integrated with different platforms and road sensors to revolutionize the way in which road transport emissions are measured and controlled.
