 79 Jenoptik’s new TraffiTop mobile speed camera housing has received the German Design Award – Special Mention from the German Design Council in the Transportation and Public Design category.

Designed by Ratingen designer Ralf Jakubowski in cooperation with ART-KON-TOR Design & Konstruktion, the TraffiTop housing combines functional requirements and aesthetics in a new form of mobile traffic monitoring. It combines a laser scanner or radar sensor with Jenoptik’s state-of-the-art SmartCamera IV in a Jenoptik MiniRack, which can easily be used in a range of applications: for fixed monitoring installed in the TraffiTower, or for in-vehicle or mobile applications mounted on a tripod.
