RSSSweden-headquartered 569 Sensys Traffic working in a consortium with Armenian companies Security Dream and Ellips GA and has announced that Security Dream has signed a build-operate-transfer  contract with the Armenian police force for a national traffic monitoring system for 25 years.

The traffic monitoring system covers speed and red-light enforcement, video surveillance, as well as a complete central system for monitoring and handling fines. The system will be built up gradually over the first seven years.

Sensys says the consortium contract will now be transformed into several contracts among the partners, one of which will be a contract between Sensys and Security Dream for speed and red-light enforcement systems. The scope and extent for Sensys will be able to be evaluated when these contracts have been finalised.

"We are very pleased that the Armenian police force has chosen our solution,” says Johan Frilund, CEO of Sensys Traffic. “The contract is in line with our adopted strategy of obtaining operator contracts with a long-term business model based on our inventories.”

    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a

    Volvo Trucks has announced it has developed I-See, which operates like an autopilot and takes over gear-changing and utilises gradients to save fuel. The system, which will be available on the market next year, is linked to the transmission’s tilt sensor and obtains information about the topography digitally. The fact that the system is not dependent on maps makes it more dependable since it always obtains the very latest information. I-See can recall about 4,000 gradients, corresponding to a distance of 5,
