Slovenian traffic technology specialist 2099 Sipronika will launch the MHP50 speed display which uses a built-in microwave radar to measure the speeds of vehicles as they pass by. There are several versions of display available: a basic version with a speed display only, a version with an additional mono-colour LED message, and a version with an RGB message. The RGB display can show any kind of multi-colour traffic signs, animated text, graphic animation or sponsor's logo.

The traffic data stored in the device can be transferred to a personal computer directly through a serial port or via a Bluetooth connection. A remote connection through a GPRS/UMTS network is also supported as an option. Additionally, the message shown on the LED display can be changed remotely to accommodate a particular road situation, such as highlighting construction works or extreme weather conditions.

Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou

    First shown at Traffex 2015 in April, production of Siemens’ new Pedestrian Countdown at Traffic Signals (PCaTS) is now fully under way. PCaTS informs pedestrians how long they have to cross the road after the far-side green man signal has gone out.
