84 LeddarTech, manufacturer of the patented Leddar LED-based detection technology has introduced its new industrial Leddar sensor, a unique detection and ranging product offering what the company says is the best cost/performance ratio on the market.

The sensor utilises a 45-degree beam and is specially designed for quick and easy integration into a wide variety of applications.  It can detect, locate and measure all types of objects, solid or liquid, even in the harshest conditions. As it contains no moving parts and comes in an IP67 enclosure, it is rugged and weather-resistant, always ensuring excellent performance.

Optimised for detection from 0 to 50 metres and ranging based on high tech technology, the sensor not only provides both distance and angular positioning, it also continuously analyses an area of sixteen segments, and can be configured at the touch of a button.

    ITS need not reinvent machine vision
    Machine vision techniques hold the potential to solve a multitude of challenges facing the transportation sector Optical Character Recognition (OCR), the base technology for number plate recognition, has been in industrial use for more than three decades. It is a prime example of how, instead of having to start from scratch, the transportation sector can leverage and adapt the machine vision expertise already used in industry in order to provide robust solutions with new capabilities. “The real val

    Debating the future development of ANPR
    What future is there for automatic number plate recognition? Will it be supplanted by electronic vehicle identification, or will continuing development maintain the technology's relevance? In recent years, digitisation and IP-based communication networks have allowed Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to achieve ever-greater utility and a commensurate increase in deployments. But where does the technology go next - indeed, does it have a future in the face of the increasing use of, for instance, Dedi
