European certification: Commsignia's ITS OB-4 unit

The manufacturer’s ITS OB-4 OBU and ITS RS-4 RSU have acquired the certificate of the European Radio Emissions Directive – and this allows them to be marketed in the European Union.

The ITS-RS4 acts as a local hub for sensor data exchange as well as an application which can improve safety for road users and optimise traffic. 

It gathers information from traffic cameras, traffic light controllers, sensors, V2X-connected vehicles and bikes. 

A deep neural network/graphics processing unit accelerated artificial intelligence processor creates a real-time representation of the information to create a dynamic model of the environment, the company adds.

According to Commsignia, the ITS-OB4 offers improved performance coupled with the V2X software stack. It offers built-in tamper-proof hardware security module and a high range V2X radio.

    Traffic engineers can use the latest advances in vision technology to streamline and enhance traffic management. The idea of using one camera to perform all functions at an intersection is attractive to authorities for many reasons and camera supplier Gridsmart says it can make this happen. Its Bell Camera offers a horizon to horizon view that includes the centre of the intersection where vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians cross paths and it can be used for traffic light actuation, traffic data collection a

    The continuing, favourable performance-versus-cost situation concerning detection and monitoring technologies is driving the proliferation of intelligence across road networks. The effective and safe management of intersections is a focus for network operators and systems manufacturers alike. The most complicated of road environments, and statistically among the least safe, intersections enjoy particular emphasis in longer-term work on cooperative infrastructure solutions. However there are current developm
