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.

    Near-fit technology can provide the solution - just ask the question.
    When a company launches a product it never quite knows how that product will be used and what else it may be required to do. Lufft’s mobile weather sensor MARWIS is a prime example. Last winter Lufft introduced MARWIS, its mobile road weather sensor, handing it initially to long-term sales partners to test and improve. What was known was the sensor’s fast reaction rate (up to 100 Hertz), combined with its wide range of measurement information, and would provide users with a gapless overview of the road stat

    New Hampshire plans for tomorrow’s communication
    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne

    Keeping a watching brief over traffic flows
    Monitoring traffic flows is set to become an even bigger challengebut a revolution in camera technology can help, as Patrik Anderson explains. By 2025 almost 60% of the world’s population will live in urban areas and in those cities there will be an estimated 6.2 billion private motorised trips every day. In order to manage this level of traffic growth, traffic management centres (TMCs) will need to both increase their monitoring capabilities and be able to detect traffic problems quickly, efficiently and r
