Enforcement systems provider 147 Vitronic has won two significant fixed and mobile enforcement contracts in Dubai and Iraqi Kurdistan.

Dubai Police has recently awarded the company a fur­ther contract for fixed traffic enforcement systems, including PoliScan speed enforcement, combined red light and speed enforcement systems, and vio­lation processing software.

The stationary PoliScan speed systems monitor all ve­hicles in the surveillance zone equally, regardless of their posi­tion on the road. The systems in Dubai have been equipped with automatic evidence data transfer to the violation pro­cessing centre using 3G.

The combined speed and red light enforcement devices are equipped with two eight megapixel high-resolution col-our cameras and a light detec­tion and ranging laser (LIDAR) detection unit.

During the red light enforcement phase, a video camera captures two rear images and a video sequence of the incident in addition to two frontal images produced by the laser system.

The Kurdish Ministry of the Interior, meanwhile, which is endeavouring to reduce the in­creasing number of road traffic accidents and fatalities on the region’s roads, is to deploy 300 mobile PoliScan speed enforce­ment systems.

The fully automatic mobile systems use LIDAR to detect speeding vehicles over sev­eral lanes. They are suitable for unattended use and can be mounted on tripods, in the front or rear of vehicles, or in stationary housings.
