Jai has introduced two new 2MP industrial-grade CCD cameras featuring full HDTV resolution (1,920x1,080P) at 64fps, making them ideal for advanced traffic imaging and vehicle recognition applications in traffic management and traffic enforcement. The new AM-201CL (monochrome) and AB-201CL (colour) cameras are the second set of cameras from Jai to feature highperformance quad-tap CCD sensors from Kodak. Like the previously introduced 8MP cameras, the new HD cameras utilise the high speed of the quad-tap arch

The new 1.4 megapixel IEEE 1394b high-performance Grasshopper2 camera from Point Grey uses the exceptionally sensitive Sony ICX285 2/3in EXview HAD CCD and a 14-bit analogue-to-digital converter to generate high-quality 1.4 megapixel images at 30 FPS - double the rate of the previous Grasshopper. Measuring just 44x29x58mm in size, the device offers new features such as opto-isolated GPIO for industrial triggering and strobe output, and optimised performance imaging modes. Every Grasshopper2 GS2-FW camera is

Laser Technology has released what it claims is the most compact and affordable laser speed enforcement device on the market. The all-new TruSpeed S weighs less than 1lb and has a binocular-style design. Every speed reading and menu option is displayed inside the x7 sighting scope, giving officers confidence in verifying a specific vehicle's speed without their having to take their eye off the target. The custom BlackMask LCD allows everything to be clearly seen in both dark and bright light conditions.

The Dinion HD 1080p Day/Night IP camera, the latest addition to the Bosch High-Definition (HD) portfolio, is said to deliver uncompromising vision, even in busy, colourful scenes, to allow reliable identification of faces, objects and alphanumeric information over a wide area. Operators can zoom in to any part of a scene to examine specific details without losing clarity. Bosch says that a specially selected image sensor enables superior detection and analysis.

APT Skidata has further enhanced its portfolio of parking technologies with the introduction of a new longrange Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag and reader solution to complement its existing Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) capabilities. The company says a low-cost long-range RFID technology is ideal in certain scenarios where the full cost of an ANPR solution cannot be justified.

PTV AG has announced what it claims is the first solution that enables users to verify and, if necessary, modify a string of GPS coordinates (tracks). The new xMapMatch Server software component validates and corrects GPS coordinates using the underlying street maps, which is particularly useful for fleet management and transport data warehouse applications, pay-asyou- drive scenarios and floating vehicle data collection. As the company points out, GPS coordinates which are sent from the vehicle to the serv

High Sierra Electronics and Innovative Dynamics have announced a partnership focusing on the ITS industry through which new optical sensor products originally developed by Innovative Dynamics for the aerospace industry are being manufactured by HSE for use in the transportation sectors.

Advanced Micro Peripherals has introduced a high-performance, dual-channel, highdefinition, ultra low latency H264 encoder card, the H264-ULLcPCI, for CompactPCI systems. It allows system builders to easily add high-definition video capture and H.264/MPEG-4 AVC (Part 10) encoding to their embedded CompactPCI equipment.

NDI Recognition Systems has announced the latest release of its Talon ANPR engine and says that Version 8.2 includes enhancements to performance, international reading capability and a simplified set-up. For instance, it accommodates multiple lane capture on any system configuration and provides a high level of accuracy and performance without quality degradation. The engine supports ANPR reading from both the IR and the colour cameras feeds, which the company says is especially important in smaller project

KBC Networks has announced its new WESII line of wireless products that build upon the success of the company's wireless point-to-point and point-to-multipoint offerings with a host of new features and capabilities. The new line delivers 802.11a/n compliance, increased bandwidth of 300Mb/s as a wireless access point (100Mb/s of usable throughput), and MIMO technology to enable up to 23dBm output power.

A new floodlight combining maintenance-free LED technology and a self-contained backup battery has been introduced by hazardous area lighting specialist Chalmit Lighting. The Solas is designed for use in both Zone 1 hazardous areas and harsh marine environments.

Blue Sky Network has launched the HawkEye 5300 dual-mode tracking device leveraging both GSM and Iridium satellite capabilities. It offers two-way real-time communication which automatically and seamlessly switches between Iridium and quad-band GSM networks. This provides land fleet operators with lower monthly tracking costs while delivering 100% global visibility.

The Gazelle camera series from Point Grey debuts with 2.2 and 4.1 megapixel monochrome models based on the high sensitivity CMOSIS CMV2000 and CMV4000 global shutter CMOS sensors. With a Camera Link digital interface in Base (2-tap) and Full (8-tap) configurations, the 2.2 megapixel model outputs 2048x1088 resolution images at a maximum rate of 280 FPS, while the 4.1 megapixel model outputs 2048x2048 images at 150 FPS.

KSW Microtec, a leading supplier of RFID components and inlays for secure cards and eDocuments, has added a new innovation to its product portfolio, a smart Mobile Phone Sticker (MPS) for ePayment, eTicketing, loyalty and access control applications.
