New Traffic Data Collection and Comms Device

Smart Signal Technologies has launched what it claims is a remarkable new product that will save taxpayers millions of dollars annually as it improves traffic signal performance along the congested signalised arterial corridors. The product, a compact device with powerful data collection and communication features, permits the gathering of high resolution data for processing into actionable real-time information to measure and monitor signal and corridor performance.

5243 Smart Signal Technologies has launched what it claims is a remarkable new product that will save taxpayers millions of dollars annually as it improves traffic signal performance along the congested signalised arterial corridors. The product, a compact device with powerful data collection and communication features, permits the gathering of high resolution data for processing into actionable real-time information to measure and monitor signal and corridor performance.

Using unique AdaptiTrol technology licensed from the 584 University of Minnesota, the company says the device costs a fraction of the cost of new controllers that are used to regulate phase changes at signalised intersections. It is NEMA compliant and is compatible with all 170/2070 and TS-1 and TS-2 controller cabinets.
