Jenoptik’s TraffiStar S350 speed and red light enforcement systems has been type approval by Germany’s Physical Technical Institute (PTB) for the German market and won a major order for the Ministry of the Interior in Qatar. The contract will see Jenoptik Traffic Solutions and its local partner Telco International install more than 60 stationary speed and red-light enforcement systems in Qatar as part of the country’s initiative to improve road safety.
TraffiStar systems use noninvasive sensors instead
TraffiStar systems use non-invasive sensors instead of in-road detectors to monitor traffic in both directions and across several lanes simultaneously, distinguishing between cars and trucks and providing lane and vehicle class data. The system captures images which identify drivers and licence plates. In Qatar, the systems will be housed in the new TraffiTower 2.0 cabinet.
