Compas is an ultra-light mobile system for automated speed enforcement

Parifex's Compas is a small mobile speed camera which is revolutionising enforcement of road traffic offences.

Perched on its tripod, the Compas is an ultra-light mobile system for automated speed enforcement. Designed to make interventions easier, its installation requires no inspection. Indeed, its fully automatic calibration system offers a high positioning tolerance, enabling it to be deployed in just a few minutes. 

It is easy to use and is certified for bi-directional control on four lanes from 30 km/h to 250 km/h. Its robust, weatherproof housing can be mounted on a tripod or placed in the boot of a stationary vehicle. As a pioneer in speed control thanks to its 3D Lidar sensor and camera, the Compas guarantees high performance in controlling road offences, such as ticketing of up to five vehicles per second and per lane, automatic number plate recognition (ANPR), vehicle classification, maximum speed per vehicle class and per lane.

The Compas comes with a carrying case that holds all the components, plus a long-life battery.

  • Machine vision needs standards to fulfil ITS demands
    May 28, 2014
    No-one should expect the enabling qualities of machine vision to come free of charge but Jason Barnes finds there is still much that ITS stakeholders can do to help reduce costs. After many years of application in high-end solutions for the enforcement and tolling sectors, machine vision is gaining traction in more general areas of traffic management. Nevertheless, those OEMs producing transport-oriented solutions which incorporate machine vision and looking to increase the technology’s share of the ITS mar

  • The UK’s busiest crossing adopts free flow charging
    April 30, 2015
    Colin Sowman looks at the transition to free-flow charging on the Dartford Crossing, a notorious congestion blackspot on the UK motorway network. The Dartford Crossing, where London’s orbital M25 motorway crosses the lower reaches of the River Thames 32km (20 miles) to the east of Central London, has long been a major source of congestion. Now, to alleviate the congestion caused by some 50 million crossings per year, the Highways Agency has adopted a free-flow charging system - but the Crossing’s location a
