Autoscope Duo unveiled

Econolite and Image Sensing Systems have unveiled Autoscope Duo, a first in a new generation of hybrid sensor technologies. The device converges the robust capabilities of radar and video and uses intelligent decision logic to monitor the current operating conditions and to combine the best of radar with the best of video data, continuously, lane-by-lane and second-by-second.

1763 Econolite and 6626 Image Sensing Systems have unveiled Autoscope Duo, a first in a new generation of hybrid sensor technologies. The device converges the robust capabilities of radar and video and uses intelligent decision logic to monitor the current operating conditions and to combine the best of radar with the best of video data, continuously, lane-by-lane and second-by-second. According to the partners, these two sensor technologies lead to significant performance improvements and provide the highest accuracy attainable for the demands of today’s most advanced intersection control requirements.

Autoscope Duo has been field-tested for nearly a year and the partners say it has proven to be a superior alternative to in-ground detection systems. Integrating radar and video detection algorithms expands the benefits of non-intrusive detection, and ensures years of low maintenance when compared to the expense of installing and maintaining inductive loop detectors. Autoscope Duo also represents a gateway to employing new ITS programmes.

    A new generation of ITS equipment is helping road authorities get to grips with cycle safety – and not a moment too soon as Colin Sowman discovers. Cyclists - remember them? Apparently not. At least not according to the OECD 2013 report Cycling, Health and Safety which contains the statement: ‘Cyclists are often forgotten in the design of the road traffic system’. Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou
