79 Jenoptik Traffic Solutions UK has announced its 8808 Vector SR camera has achieved UK Home Office type approval to operate as an unattended enforcement device for measurement of vehicle speeds.

Jenoptik says the Vector SR camera was developed to measure ‘spot speeds’ over a short section of road, such as those which are prone to collisions.

The solution uses the Vector2 integrated automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera platform, working alongside Jenoptik’s 3D tracking radar device, and can be mounted on a passively safe pole.

According to Jenoptik, the system can operate alongside the patented Vector IR Infra-Red illumination module, allowing image capture on a fully dark road without any distracting flashes or dazzling puddles of light.
