The idea to found Bercman Technologies came from a real-life need. There are still too many traffic-related accidents so we want to give our contribution. Bercman supports Vision Zero and the widespread deployment of self-driving vehicles by developing products designed to be able to interact with all participants in the traffic environment.
Our mission is to avoid and prevent avoidable road accidents and to accelerate progress towards the widespread adoption of self-driving and connected vehicles to achieve this aim.
In the future, all the solutions developed by the company will be in active dialogue with other infrastructure equipment as well as with the vehicles themselves, to make sure the traffic environment is as safe and nature-friendly as possible. We want to make the city a better place to live by modernising old-school traffic technologies and providing connected infrastructure benefits to everyone.
The company’s vision is to become a preferred partner for the development of smart cities, smart roads and other innovative mobility products and services aimed at improving road safety. We address the global intelligent transport systems market, estimated to reach €70 billion by 2027.
