Waukesha County parks to implement artificial intelligence system

Rekor Systems, Inc., a provider of real-time roadway, customer and public safety intelligence to enable AI-driven decisions, announced Tuesday it was selected by the county to implement its Rekor One vehicle recognition system at eight Waukesha County public park entrances. The solution was selected after a competitive bid process earlier this year. Waukesha County Parks utilizes a fee-based system to offset the cost of maintaining thousands of acres of parkland and greenway. According to Rekor, the company's software and hardware will "replace a time-consuming parking enforcement process and support the integration of various entrance fee payment options into one online payment method, better serving both the public and the county." The move comes amid rising popularity of local parks.
