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.
