A project by TUM and Hochschule München.

kemptAInability - Interactive traffic flow simulation

The application will demonstrate how alternative transport routes can enhance the city's quality of life while enhancing a more sustainable environment.

Challenge

Options for a reorganization of inner-city car traffic

The challenge is to transform the planned closure of the St. Mang bridge from a logistical task into an opportunity to encourage sustainable behavioral change in the city center of Kempten among residents through information provision.

About the prototype

We have implemented an interactive traffic simulation with a generic aspect, which is currently focused on the city of Kempten. It shows how traffic flows over a specific time period and how this changes when a particular road is blocked, as well as the effect this has on traffic delays, CO􀎍 emissions and noise pollution. It has been developed not only for citizens, who can engage with it by testing it interactively in Kempten's Future Lab, but also to convince political opinion leaders and showcase the positive impact on quality of life and a greener city centre. Our cost-effective simulation can be easily used by end consumers, not only tech-affines, once set up.
