Road safety innovations for the future 

AS Bercman Technologies, founded in 2016, is revolutionising road safety with its innovative solutions for pedestrian crosswalks. Through their Smart Pedestrian Crosswalk (SPC), they aim to mitigate road traffic accidents and significantly contribute to the advancement of autonomous vehicle technologies across Europe. 

 Smart solutions for safer roads 
Bercman’s key product, the Smart Pedestrian Crosswalk (SPC), improves traffic safety at unregulated crosswalks. This adaptive device alerts road users to potential hazards, ensuring greater awareness and safer interactions for vulnerable road users. With a focus on reducing fatalities, especially among pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists, Bercman continues to push the boundaries of smart city and road solutions. 

Protecting vulnerable road users 
With an eye on the EU market, Bercman aims to expand the reach of their SPC to reduce the staggering number of annual traffic deaths, especially those involving vulnerable road users. Their product has already entered multiple European markets, contributing to safer roads and advancing the smart mobility sector. Despite challenges in market entry, Bercman remains committed to scaling their solutions.
