Citilog and Axis Communications are highlighting their solutions to optimise traffic and transportation safety and efficiency. Advanced analytics from Citilog and the surveillance products from Axis are used to automatically identify traffic incidents and deviations in real time to help traffic management centres improve traffic flow and shorten response times. Citilog, which became part of Axis Communications in 2016, will also highlight solutions to analyse advanced traffic statistics and provide solution

The big news at Rotapanel is not a rotating panel, it is its new variable message LED matrix sign. According to Hendry Born, product engineer with Rotapanel, authorities are increasingly specifying a combination of signs and want a one-stop supplier. However, he said the rotating signs’ benefits remain – most notably easily recognisable signage for drivers, ‘stand-alone’ ability with battery power and solar recharging and low whole life costs. “In many instances authorities only need to direct vehicles on

China’s Guangzhou Owleye Optoelectronic Technology is showing its new solar-powered traffic cone light, which aims to improve safety when warnings must be given to drivers of roadworks or other potential dangers. To ensure maximum flexibility with an operator’s existing equipment, the new light has a stainless steel ring that can be installed directly on to any size of traffic cone.

Signal Group is launching a new traffic control product, called the C5000 intersection control system, here at Intertraffic. The company says it has taken its proven US technology from the ATC line of traffic controllers and SG line of safety monitors and created an all-in-one unit. The new unit, along with its paired power distribution assembly, can deliver world-class traffic control in an integrated card-rack based form factor. This initial launch configuration will drive up to 32 individual signal sets

Optex will showcase two above ground ViiK vehicle detectors currently deployed in Europe, Middle East and Africa at Intertraffic. The solutions are said to be ideal for sites where ground loops cannot be installed, such as where the road surface is damaged, unsealed, paved with cobblestones or above drains or pipes. The OVS-01GT is said to be designed for gate, barrier or industrial door activation and combines microwave with ultrasonic technology to sense a vehicle’s movement and presence. It is suited f

Intertraffic visitors are the first to see a new radar detector from Icoms Detection – the Belgian subsidiary of IRD. The pole-mounted unit, knows as the TMA-13X, has a range of 80 metres, identifies up to 32 vehicles (targets) across three or four lanes of oncoming traffic and can monitor the route vehicles follow through an intersection. According to the company, one TMA-13X unit can replace multiple loops (approach and stop line) without any roadworks and it functions regardless of light conditions

A smart parking solution which directs city drivers to the likeliest available spaces based on historical and real-time traffic flow data has won the overall prize at the Intertraffic 2018 Innovation Awards. The On-Street Parking Information (OSPI) feature in BMW cars, coupled with an in-dash payments system from ParkNow, guides drivers to the area in which they should have the best chance of parking and then allows them to pay for it.

Redflex is highlighting its innovative solution for processing and managing photo enforcement incidents. This can be a costly, complex and time-consuming task for an organisation, particularly so as camera networks proliferate and volumes of data increase. Numerous touch points and variables in the infringement life cycle add to the challenge. “We saw that enforcement agencies were looking for a unified platform that could help them streamline the way they handled incidents, while also

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

Sick’s new TDC - telematic data collector - gateway enables easy collection of sensor and system data from mobile and stationary systems. Together with localisation data (GPS), the data can be transferred to a server or cloud via a 3G mobile communication protocol (MQTT) provided in the system. Data can be displayed, monitored, recorded and analysed in no time at all and from any location, according to the company. This means that users can respond in a strategic, economically appropriate manner.

Russia’s OAO Zavod Prodmash is seeking to find a new producer for its new APM 110 P crash cushion, as the system goes through European testing and acceptance procedures. The crash cushion, which, as its designation suggests, can handle impacts of upto 110kp/h, has been evaluated by Transpolis of Lyon, France and successfully passed seven different tests, said sales and operations manager Dmitry Liganov. The certification process for the barrier is now under way he added and he hoped this would be finalised

TRL Software is seeking new outlets for the software behind the SCOOT (Split Cycle and Offset Optimisation Technique) adaptive traffic control system, after the original arrangement through which it supplied the software was dissolved.

Reducing the cost of replacing damaged or demolished traffic signs is the aim of Saedi’s Augustaflex technology, which is on show here. Even relatively minor impacts can damage street traffic signs or bollards to the point where they have to be replaced, at considerable cost to local authorities. And those signs that do not have to be replaced but sustain damage can spoil a streetscape.

A breakthrough in the size and capabilities of retroreflectometers is being claimed by Brazilian company Easylux with its new Autonomous Mini model. Retroreflectometers have been shrinking steadily over the decades, and a current model usually weighs about 8-10kg. However, Easylux’s model cuts the size and weight of the devices to just 2kg – “completely impossible to imagine two or three years ago”, said company founder Eng. Gustavo Felipe Paolillo. The new model is battery-powered and, once laid on a highw
