604 Vysionics’ SPECS3 Vector average speed enforcement camera, the latest addition to the company’s successful SPECS family of average speed enforcement devices has achieved UK Home Office Type Approval.

Unlike earlier SPECS platforms, SPECS3 Vector is a fully integrated camera unit with all the camera, processing and communications modules built into a single, elegant housing. This increased flexibility makes the device suitable for all current average speed enforcement applications, as well as a range of new opportunities, including a cost effective alternative to spot speed camera upgrades, as well as addressing export markets for point to point enforcement.

Geoff Collins, Vysionics sales and marketing director says “This is a very exciting breakthrough, encapsulating fifteen years of real-world average speed experience into a single camera unit.  We are already seeing considerable interest from customers both in the UK and abroad”.

To support the new device, Vysionics has introduced a range of new mounting options, including a bracket enabling the camera to be mounted on to existing street furniture, and a passively safe tilt down column for easy maintenance.

    Average speed enforcement, a huge impact on reducing speed
    A guaranteed way to get drivers to slow down and comply with work zone speed limits is to use average speed cameras. Deployed in the UK for over a decade now, they have had a huge impact, not least in achieving around 99 per cent compliance with speed limits. It's not difficult to understand: when someone knows that if they speed through a work zone it is absolutely guaranteed that they will be caught, fined and have points on their licence, only a total fool would. In the UK, SPECS average speed cameras we
