Jenoptik Smart Mobility Solutions has deployed speed enforcement systems and begun processing and issuing violations in the US state of Maryland.

Each system on the roads of Prince George’s County contains the Vector SR camera with integrated ALPR and a radar sensor to monitor speed limits up to 186 mph. 

They are powered by high-capacity lithium batteries and solar panels, making them self-sufficient for months even without sun. 

The company has opened an office in Prince George’s County, they continue to further establish their presence in the county and the greater Northeast region as well as bring more jobs to the community. 

“The Prince George’s County Police Department is excited to begin this new phase of our Vision Zero goal in reducing high speed driving and eliminate fatal and severe road incidents with Jenoptik,” states Major Anthony Cline of Prince George’s County Police Department.

The automated enforcement programme consists of various cameras deployed at different locations, such as outside schools and in residential areas, and citizens can report other locations where they experienced speeding drivers.
