US–headquartered 73 Iteris has increased its Vantage video detection product suite with two new products, SmartCycle and SmartSpan.

SmartCycle accurately detects vehicles and cycles with a single video detection camera facing a dedicated approach. Transportation agencies can now benefit from cycle-specific virtual detection zones that can be placed anywhere within the approaching traffic lanes.

“SmartCycle provides traffic engineers with a cost-effective way to bring their traffic management systems into compliance with new regulations that require bicycle detection,” says Abbas Mohaddes, president and CEO of Iteris.

SmartSpan enables traffic management agencies to cost-effectively deploy video vehicle detection. SmartSpan uses proprietary Dynamic Zone Stabilisation (DZS) algorithms to provide accurate advance detection and stop-bar detection of vehicles at intersections equipped with span wire mounted signal lights.

“SmartSpan offers traffic engineers a seamless way to combine the benefits of video vehicle detection, traffic data collection, and intersection surveillance for span wire equipped intersections.” says Mohaddes.
