Intrada Insight will be on show at Intertraffic Amsterdam 2024

Q-Free has upgraded its Intrada Insight software for optimising end-to-end video toll transaction processing. 

The firm says the latest update "emphasises efficiency in handling vast data volumes in challenging network topologies with limited bandwidth".

Contemporary all-electronic toll collection systems (AETC) collect "substantial" amounts of data, Q-Free says: Intrada "facilitates scalable data downloads and transfers, optimises bandwidth usage, and supports multiple data streams, enhancing operational flexibility".

“Intrada Insight, through innovative technology and meticulous attention to detail, shows our dedication to providing agencies with optimal revenue generation and cost efficiency," says Marco Sinnema, Q-Free’s VP of image review solutions. 

"We leverage every advantage possible to maximise revenue and deliver the lowest operating expense on the market."

The software collects vehicle data from cameras and sensors mounted on toll roads, and "assigns a digital fingerprint that enables unique automation-rate-increasing features like grouping". 

Q-Free says key features include a human-machine learning feedback loop for improved automated plate reads, reduced reliance on manual review and "advanced technologies such as multi-OCR engines and deep neural networks". 

The company is exhibiting at Intertraffic Amsterdam from 16-19 April on Stand 05.303.

    Video surveillance solutions supplier Siqura has released its Eve plug and- play video encoders, which it claims provide a no-nonsense approach to video surveillance. The small, easy-to-use encoders support 960H-enhanced video streams, digitises analogue video signals and send them directly over any IP network. This allows users to transfer video to any destination enabling live footage to be viewed in the central control room, while a duplicate stream is sent to a remote recorder or to a mobile device.
  • Faster more flexible ANPR from Imagsa

    Imagsa’s latest Atalaya automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera is more flexible and has more processing power, thanks to the company’s proprietary FPGA processor coupled to a CMOS sensor which allows the camera to operate at 270 frames per second. Although Imagsa say this isn’t necessarily needed for ANPR, the camera works under any conditions and at this frame rate can accurately detect a vehicle ten times in three metres at speeds of up to 250 km/h, even in heavy rain or in direct sunlight.
