114 Robot Visual Systems, a wholly-owned subsidiary of 79 Jenoptik for over 10 years, has from today changed its trading name to Jenoptik Robot GmbH. The announcement is part of a change in the external corporate presence under the umbrella brand Jenoptik.

Jenoptik Robot, a central component of the traffic safety division within the group, will retain its head office in Monheim am Rhein, Germany with no change to contact staff. The market-leading product portfolio based on tried and trusted Robot technology includes comprehensive systems relating to road traffic, such as speed and red light surveillance units in addition to OEM products and installations for detecting other traffic violations.

According to Jenoptik Group, there will be benefits resulting from the uniform presence within the Jenoptik group, not least that Robot components, which have been well-known and tried and trusted for more than 75 years combined with comprehensive services and complete solutions, can be offered internationally by the group with even greater impact.
