DataBlade

The Metrolla™ brand DataBlade™ is a sensor ingestion device that sits on a light pole or other on-site location. It revolutionizes roadway data management through the use of its pre-downloaded and installed perception software enabling seamless automation, alerting, and cross-device communication based on real-time sensor data. It can be programmed with custom algorithms to address your specific safety and data needs. The datablade communicates over any network to deliver metrics to our cloud based service dashboard. The Datablade can support up to 4 cameras, radar, and one LIDAR sensor.

Advanced Vision Capabilities

DataBlade delivers dense 3D perception with long-range accuracy, enabling precise detection, tracking, and classification in any environment. Its advanced vision stack turns raw lidar data into actionable intelligence in real time.
‍

Integrated Intelligence

DataBlade fuses onboard analytics, machine learning, and multi-sensor context into a single platform. The result is smarter behavior, richer insights, and faster reactions without relying on external compute.

Innovation & Cost Reduction

DataBlade’s architecture streamlines sensing, compute, and connectivity, reducing deployment friction and total cost of ownership. Its innovative design delivers enterprise-grade capability without enterprise-grade complexity.

Reliability & safety

Designed for mission-critical deployments, DataBlade provides consistent performance across weather, lighting, and complex scenes. Its robust processing ensures dependable detection with fewer false positives and safer decision-making.

Adaptability & Optimization

Built to fit dynamic environments, DataBlade automatically adapts to scene changes, installation constraints, and operational needs. It optimizes performance on the fly to maintain accuracy and efficiency at scale.

Redefining Architecture

DataBlade shifts perception from monolithic systems to distributed, edge-first intelligence. Its modular design enables flexible scaling, rapid integration, and a new paradigm for resilient, future-proof 3D sensing.

Integrated data dashboard

Products / Dashboard, SaaS and analytics

All Metrolla™ implementations come with our cloud hosted service software and management tools. Whenever you have deployed a DataBlade or Safe Work Zone system, you have 24/7 cloud-based access to the collected data through a service dashboard.

This facilitates remote monitoring, ensuring sensors are functioning properly, and responsive decision-making. Additionally, you are able to port Metrolla’s data feeds to other systems or analytics tools through standardized or custom integrations.

In addition to Metrolla's equipment-based service dashboard, pilot users are invited to participate in the development of Metrolla™ SaaS, a powerful software-only solution for seamless one-to-one video feed processing. This innovative offering eliminates the need for on-site hardware infrastructure, allowing organizations to leverage advanced software benefits. Metrolla® SaaS ingests any web-available video feed, providing analytics tools without the need for on-site hardware.

While this removes the ability for Metrolla™ to offer the real-time safety benefits available through DataBlade and Safe Work Zone System deployments, organizations are able to understand and analyze camera and sensor data remotely using proprietary algorithms for post-even analysis.
