Smart navigation that actually prevents congestion is being demonstrated by Graphmasters in Hall 8 with the aid of some eye-catching Lego. As with most navigation systems, drivers are warned about congestion ahead and the system suggests a modified route. However, according to Graphmasters’ Alexander Meister, the same suggested diversion is given to all vehicles, resulting in simply relocating the queue, whereas drivers using his company’s Nunav app are given different individual routes even if they are go

Hikvision is presenting a check-point camera that aims to brings artificial intelligence (AI) to critical infrastructure support at Intertraffic. The platform uses automatic number plate recognition, classification and automotive dead reckoning to detect and track criminals and identify unlicensed or uninsured drivers.

Nissen is back at Intertraffic, this time sporting its new brand image that includes a revamped website and entire product information offering. The company, based in Germany for over 100 years, is a pioneer in mobile traffic safety devices such mobile warning systems, lights and lamps to complex LED applications and software solutions.

Another decade of cooperation between 3M and its long-standing UK sign manufacturer client Morelock Group was cemented with firm handshakes on the 3M stand yesterday. Morelock has purchased a Durst Rho 163 TS printing system after a decade of operating the previous model, a Rho 161. The new printer can produce more than 25m² per hour on 1,220mm-wide media in high-quality mode for traffic sign use. It uses specially designed 3M Piezo InkJet 8900UV series inks on 3M reflective sheeting as well as rigid

The low-slung, curved roofline reminds you initially of a tortoise, but the latest solar-powered car from the Eindhoven University of Technology has a performance of which even the speediest tortoise can only dream. The ultra-streamlined Stella Vie car, built by students in 10 months from September 2016 for the World Solar Challenge, can get up to a highly-respectable 120km/h and travel up to 1000km on a sunny Dutch day. That comes from a lithium-ion battery that generates sufficient power for 600km, toppe

The Safence Super C-profile wire rope slope fence from Blue Systems is now MASH accredited. The Super C is used on slopes and side areas of roads, as well as medians and is available in a range of systems in accordance with NCHRP 350, European EN 1317, similar to Blue Systems Safence U-profile cable fence. Now the Super C is US MASH accredited, making it the world’s first MASHG slope and side cable barrier to carry the assurance, claims Mats Heinevik, chief executive of Blue Systems.

SVS-Vistek is showcasing a new, ultra-high resolution camera capable of taking photographs of up to 120 megapixels for ANPR purposes. The camera’s resolution is so great that it can be placed some distance from the scene – at the top of a high building, for example – and carry out ANPR surveillance over several streets simultaneously. Speed or red light enforcement are among the potential uses. The typical range of cameras used for ANPR purposes is five to 20 megapixels.

Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) specialist Kistler says its move into speed camera enforcement will help complement its core activities. The firm acquired German company eso, which manufactures portable speed measurement devices, last year, and Tomas Pospisek, Kistler’s global market development manager for road & traffic, says: “We’re hoping this will bring us synergies. We’re monitoring the weight and they’re monitoring the speed. It’s an important step, for sure.” When it comes to WIM, Kistler still maintains ther

Cisco’s display focuses on a novel way of detecting traffic speeds, congestion and incidents without the use of loops. The company is using a fibre optic cable positioned alongside the road and down which it shines a light. Vibration created by passing vehicles create vibration which disrupts the passage of the light. Cisco has developed algorithms that can translate these disruptions to determine what type of vehicle is passing, in which direction, the lane it is using and the speed it is travelling. The

The efficiency and wellbeing of control room operators is catered for by Gesab with its new DeskWall Dynamic KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) system and consoles - examples of which are being displayed on its stand in hall 12. DeskWall works on a distributed cluster architecture and provides each operator with a large (up to 65inch) display on which they can configure multiple streams, internet feeds and other information. Operators can also control allocated functions (cameras, signs, alerts…) and send or sh
