The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Traffic Engineering Research Laboratory (TERL) has approved 6626 Image Sensing Systems’ RTMS Sx-300 radar detector to its specification 660.

The small pole-mounted radar-based RTMS Sx-300 operates in the microwave band to detect and measure traffic. It simultaneously provides per-lane presence, volume, occupancy, speed and classification information in up to 12 user-defined detection zones.

    Optex will showcase two above ground ViiK vehicle detectors currently deployed in Europe, Middle East and Africa at Intertraffic. The solutions are said to be ideal for sites where ground loops cannot be installed, such as where the road surface is damaged, unsealed, paved with cobblestones or above drains or pipes. The OVS-01GT is said to be designed for gate, barrier or industrial door activation and combines microwave with ultrasonic technology to sense a vehicle’s movement and presence. It is suited f

    Rear cameras are more effective than parking sensors at helping drivers avoid objects while travelling in reverse, but they don't help in every situation, a new Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) study shows. The study, conducted with volunteer drivers in an empty parking lot in the Los Angeles area, indicates that cameras would help prevent more reversing crashes into pedestrians in the vehicle's blind zone than parking sensors. Surprisingly, cameras by themselves worked better than sensors a
