Radar traffic detection and monitoring specialist Wavetronics has released its Click 50 traffic cabinet device which provides up to 64 channels worth of data. The device allows SmartSensor Advance and SmartSensor Matrix to communicate directly to the traffic controller, effectively replacing up to 16 four-channel or 32 two-channel rack cards with a small box measuring 19.8 x 26.2 x 9.9cm (7.8 x 10.3 x 3.9in). Click 650 can eliminate the need for rack cards and back plates while enabling intersection app

An integrated luminaire receiver developed by Energy Assets as part of its Z-Lynk control technology enables street lighting engineers to remotely dim and turn LED street lights on or off. The system is to be used across the City of London and will enable engineers to dim LED street lighting in real time via a web browser. Each receiver is programmable via near field communication (NFC) to respond to up to ten different command settings, bringing a new level of flexibility to lighting levels and zonal co

Public safety equipment supplier Kustom Signals has released the next phase of its popular file management system, Eyewitness data vault (EDV). Eyewitness data vault lite (EDV Lite) is specifically designed for smaller installations of Kustom in-car and body-worn video systems that only utilise manual file transfer. EDV Lite offers the same intuitive look and feel as Eyewitness data vault, with an extensive list of powerful and popular features such as file intake, search, play, burn and export, as well

According to Dutch company Arvoo, its ScanGenius turns every car into an automatic number plate reading (ANPR) scan car and is now available an all-in-one ANPR car roof box, comprising processing units, GPS systems and ANPR and panoramic cameras. Multiple ANPR cameras simultaneously scan all number plates over a 360 degree radius, providing contextual number plate information, while additional cameras are available for panoramic views and videos. Number plate information can be augmented with accurate G

The smartphone is a driver’s best friend – or so it seems: apps help them navigate, avoid congestion, identify a parking space, locate an EV charge point, find the area’s cheapest fuel, check the weather, pay tolls … the list goes on. While some have voice actuation, the whole issue of driver-related apps still concerns me. The World Health Organisation / National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSA) report Mobile Phone Use: A Growing Problem of Driver Distraction says: ‘…studies suggest that driver

Highway Resource Solutions has expanded its Intellicone product range to include Intellicone Traffic Management Unit (TMU) and Intellicone Sentry. The TMU system enables traffic management staff to detect breaches at remote barriers and relay this to Intellicone portable site alarms within a work site. When combined with Intellicone enabled Dorman cone lamps, this helps create safer working environments. The Intellicone Sentry, a rapidly deployable ultrasonic beam sensor, detects vehicles breaching

The latest variable message sign (VMS) from French manufacturer SES is fully powered by solar panels, making it possible to install a sign virtually anywhere without the need for cables or mains power. Ideal for many applications from highway to urban, the signs use high intensity LEDs in a choice of character matrix, line matrix or full matrix display and are compliant with EN12966 European standards. With a display height of 160mm to 457mm, the signs are ideal for large VMS to small lane control signs

Veronet, the latest interface for traffic node control from Austrian engineering and software company Andata allows a completely new access to intelligent traffic control, for highly automated evaluation of optimal green and cycle times of any traffic situation and intersection configuration. Control algorithms for traffic nodes (node control objects calculate the best traffic control parameters such as turnaround and green times, taking arbitrary control targets in real time for a given traffic situati

The latest roadside cabinet developed by Ritherdon is said by the company to be the world’s first passive roadside cabinet. To ensure that the product performed as specified in EN 12767, two full-scale crash-tests were carried out on the product. The tests examine two parameters to define the safety level of the vehicle occupants at the time of impact: acceleration severity index (ASI) and theoretical head impact velocity (THIV). The car was crashed into the passively safe cabinet at 35km/h and 100 km
