6626 Image Sensing Systems (ISS) has launched the RTMS SX-300 BT to its traffic management product line which comes with integrated Bluetooth sensor thanks to an agreement with 6771 Trafficnow, the developers of Bluetooth sensors for the traffic management sector.

The Bluetooth sensor detects the signals from vehicles and handheld mobile devices and allows traffic managers to monitor the signals throughout the duration of movement. The combination of Bluetooth sensing with RTMS radar provides traffic managers with incident detection, travel time and origin/destination information and the Sx-300 provides lane-by-lane detection capabilities.
