Combined speed and red light enforcement

Traffex 2011 sees the world launch of the Truvelo 'D-Cam L', a dual-capability speed and red light camera. The versatile device may be used as a speed camera alone, or be deployed at a red light intersection where it will monitor red light offences and act as a speed camera on the green and amber phases.

136 Traffex 2011 sees the world launch of the 143 Truvelo 'D-Cam L', a dual-capability speed and red light camera. The versatile device may be used as a speed camera alone, or be deployed at a red light intersection where it will monitor red light offences and act as a speed camera on the green and amber phases. It digitally signs, encrypts and stores two images for a red light offence and one image for a speed offence.

Up to four laser sensors are permanently mounted in the D-Cam L's roadside housing, along with the camera itself.

There is no roadside computer cabinet required as the D-Cam L contains all the necessary image capture and transmission modules onboard. Images are transmitted to the Truvelo Back-Office Server (TBOS) by ADSL or 3G/HSDPA. One TBOS can handle up to 30 cameras.

    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni

    According to recent analysis by American Traffic Solutions (ATS), driver behaviour at St Louis red-light safety cameras monitored intersections continues to change. The study found that the number of red-light running violations captured at ATS monitored intersections has fallen significantly as drivers have become more accustomed to increased red-light enforcement. The analysis found that fewer and fewer vehicles are being issued multiple violations; 84 per cent of vehicle owners who received and paid

    May 24, 2016
    High-speed weigh-in-motion is starting to make its mark on both sides of the Atlantic. As a transit country the Czech Republic experiences a large number of overloaded vehicles, which greatly increase highway maintenance costs. This prompted its Transport Ministry to trial an extension of the capabilities of the existing truck tolling system to allow the dynamic high-speed weighing of cargo vehicles. In effect the tolling enforcement gantries become weigh-in-motion (WIM) locations.

    Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are evolving at a rapid pace – but drivers’ ability to cope with them is not and at some point the mismatch must be addressed. Probably the biggest challenge the transportation industry has ever faced.” That is how Dr Bryan Reimer of Massachusetts Institute of Technology AgeLab describes the challenges posed by semi-autonomous vehicles.
