Kaiyun video model for expressway incident monitoring
China Merchants Expressway reported 90% less manual video-patrol time in its Kaiyun pilot
Problem
Expressway monitoring relied on manual camera patrols and rule-based algorithms. The operator reported missed incidents and delayed responses.
Approach
China Merchants Expressway developed Kaiyun using large and small models to analyze roadside video. It piloted the system in subsidiary road operations, including Chongqing and Cenxing Expressway. The model detected and reported incidents automatically, leaving monitoring staff to assess alerts and coordinate responses.
Results
Takeaway
Staff shifted from watching routine video to handling reported events. The published time reductions covered pilot operations.
