RSS1766 High Sierra Electronics and 1767 Innovative Dynamics have announced a new partnership focusing on the ITS industry through which new optical sensor products originally developed by Innovative Dynamics for the aerospace industry will now be manufactured in California by HSE for use in the transportation sectors.

HSE now has full manufacturing rights to Innovative Dynamics’ IceSight, a remote sensor that uses laser and infrared electro-optical technology to determine the conditions of the road surface. The sensor’s standard data output includes air temperature, surface temperature, eight distinct surface indications, a surface friction coefficient, and a soiled optics indication. HSE says these compact and rugged sensors can be deployed on existing traffic poles or structures using standard Astro-Brac or similar hardware. These open protocol sensors are network ready and can be deployed alone or as part of a NTCIP-compliant road weather system.

Looking to future products, collaboration between the partners is now underway to product related remote sensor products measuring surface temperature and visibility.

    An indication of just how far beyond spot speed and red light the enforcement sector has progressed was evident in the range of new and improved equipment on display at the recent Traffex event in Birmingham. One of the key trends, particularly in the UK but also evident elsewhere, is the increase in average speed enforcement, according to RedSpeed’s managing director Robert Ryan, who predicts a big increase in installations this year. “The price point has reached a level authorities can afford,” he says, a
