The trial was based on technology that is known and well-tested
The technical solutions must be understandable and user-friendly. The trial participants’ experience of the solutions was a significant element of the trial.
User-friendly app
The trial used an app that is in use abroad to record driving in terms of both time and kilometres. The app recorded the user’s behaviour and driving either automatically or manually.
Box in the car
Some test participants used both an app and a box in their passenger car. This has provided greater insight into the different technical solutions.
Checks via existing number plate cameras
Checks will be based on the automatic reading of number plates using Sund & Bælt’s existing number plate cameras. In addition, images will be manually validated afterwards.
Data from the number plate cameras will be compared with data from the app in order to issue mock fines.
