    The Netherlands’ famous love of bicycles could be a problem when it comes to the deployment of autonomous vehicles there. And there might be other obstacles, finds Ben Spencer Of all the countries on the planet, the Netherlands is most ready to start deploying autonomous vehicles (AVs), according to a survey by KPMG earlier this year. On the face of it, this is good news: coming first out of 25 countries listed in the Autonomous Vehicles Readiness Index (AVRI) for the second consecutive year puts the Du

    High accuracy and reliability of GNSS location data is available using the EGNOS services to be ready for Galileo’s expanding satellite constellation. Global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) are increasingly a building block for ITS applications from road user charging and E-call to tracking & tracing of freight. Even while the European Space Agency is still assembling the Galileo constellation, EGNOS (the European Geostationary Navigation Overlay Service) is already providing the basis of a range of ser

    Basler’s Enzio Schneider explains why advances in CMOS technology provides new opportunities for vision-based ITS applications. Since the beginning of 2015, or even before, it seems obvious that all roads in vision-based ITS applications lead in one technological direction – CMOS. Initially perceived as a trend in vision technology, it has taken a step towards status as the new benchmark with Sony’s announcement to discontinue their CCD production. CMOS sensor technology has become the future for industrial
