**AI Solving Dirty Vehicle Emissions**Smart-H, an Exeter based Artificial-Intelligence Company, is leading the way to reduce Emissions on all vehicles, by using AI to continuously and adaptively tune the engine to a near perfect state.**Protecting Life Itself**The development of our new Quantum Drive (Q-Drive) technology will enable perfect engine settings to be achieved at least 5 minutes in advance of any designated 'Safe-Area', for example near a University campus, a school playground, a residential care-home or an area containing protected flora, fauna and woodlands. The innovation includes engine and exhaust strategies for a multitude of modes of operation, for instance the 'Inner City Mode', where the carbon emissions are lowered to almost zero, whilst still maintaining sufficient power levels.**A Global Necessity**Carbon emissions in highly populated areas are a major cause of respiratory illnesses. Asthma for example has been proven to dominate in areas where traffic emissions are very high, making the Smart-H AI solution a global must!**Predictable Models**One of the biggest problems with big vehicle data is that worthless models are often created in an environment where almost nothing is predictable or measurable, for instance taxis would be almost impossible to optimise as the routes they drive are often unknown, solely dependent on random customer-bookings.As a result, our initial technical and business plan is to engage with bus companies, and refuse collection truck operators here in Exeter, where the vehicle routes, topography and drivers are all known quantities, and therefore with enough data the emission reduction model can be created as near perfect as possible providing an immediate impact on air-quality. Once those predictable models are achieved, Smart-H will move onto the more unpredictable.**Accurate Data**One of the key difficulties facing Smart-H was finding a bus company willing to test the Q-Drive; First Group, one of the largest bus operators in the UK came to the rescue and have agreed to work with Smart-H to perfect the Q-Drive AI system using buses on busy inner-city routes. Their involvement will provide actuals that could not be achieved by engine simulations in the laboratory and help to make the project a resounding success.**A joint Initiative**With the full support of Exeter City Council, the University of Exeter and our own AI specialists, Smart-H will endeavour to turn Devon's Jewel-in-the-crown, Exeter, into a Smart, Safe and Carbon-Free City by the end of 2023\.

**人工智能解决肮脏的车辆排放**Smart-H 是一家位于埃克塞特的人工智能公司，通过使用人工智能持续、自适应地将发动机调整到近乎完美的状态，在减少所有车辆的排放方面处于领先地位。**保护生命本身**我们新开发的量子驱动 (Q-Drive) 技术将能够在任何指定“安全区域”（例如大学校园、学校附近）之前至少 5 分钟实现完美的发动机设置游乐场、住宅护理院或含有受保护动植物和林地的区域。该创新包括针对多种运行模式的发动机和排气策略，例如“内城模式”，其中碳排放量几乎降至零，同时仍保持足够的功率水平。**全球必需**碳排放在人口稠密地区，这是引起呼吸道疾病的主要原因。例如，哮喘已被证明在交通排放非常高的地区占主导地位，这使得 Smart-H AI 解决方案成为全球必须！**可预测的模型**大车辆数据的最大问题之一是经常创建毫无价值的模型在几乎没有什么可预测或可测量的环境中，例如出租车几乎不可能优化，因为它们行驶的路线通常是未知的，完全依赖于随机的客户预订。因此，我们最初的技术和业务计划是参与与巴士公司联系，并拒绝埃克塞特的收集卡车运营商，那里的车辆路线、地形和司机都是已知的，因此，有了足够的数据，就可以创建尽可能近乎完美的减排模型，从而对空气质量产生立竿见影的影响。一旦实现了这些可预测的模型，Smart-H 将转向更加不可预测的模型。**准确的数据**Smart-H 面临的主要困难之一是找到一家愿意测试 Q-Drive 的巴士公司；英国最大的巴士运营商之一 First Group 前来救援，并同意与 Smart-H 合作，在繁忙的市内路线上使用巴士来完善 Q-Drive 人工智能系统。他们的参与将提供实验室发动机模拟无法实现的实际情况，并有助于使该项目取得巨大成功。**联合倡议**在埃克塞特市议会、埃克塞特大学和我们自己的人工智能的全力支持下Smart-H 将努力在 2023 年底前将德文郡皇冠上的宝石埃克塞特打造成一座智能、安全和无碳的城市\。
