73 Iteris’ vehicle detection camera, Vantage Vector, which combines video detection and microwave radar to offer a wide range of capabilities, has successfully completed a comprehensive qualification process with the 375 Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT).

Vantage Vector is an all-in-one vehicle detection sensor which is suitable for stop bar detection, advanced-zone detection and sensing that enables advanced safety and adaptive control applications.  Vantage Vector met the qualification requirements of both the TO-6291 Video Imaging Vehicle Detection System (Intersection Stop Line Detection) and the TO-8000 Radar Vehicle Detection System.

“The TxDOT successful prequalification of our Vantage Vector product is a testament to the level of quality products and services Iteris provides,” stated Todd Kreter, vice president of Roadway Sensors for Iteris. “The evaluation conducted by Texas is one of the most comprehensive in the industry. Qualifying for the advanced radar and video detection makes this product suitable for variety of applications at signalised intersections.”
