The Leddar One sensing module from Canadian LED-based detection technology supplier, 84 LeddarTech, is a more compact (50mm diameter) and low-cost alternative that the company claims brings valuable sensing intelligence to a whole new range of finished products.

Its focused, conic beam is said to offer excellent overall range and performance, adaptability, easy integration, low power consumption and high accuracy. The single-element sensing module is particularly suitable for applications such as level sensing, security and surveillance and proximity detection

Leddar One comes with dedicated Leddar Configurator configuration software and the Leddar Enabler SDK development kit, containing libraries and examples. The code can be easily ported to any system, resulting in fast integration of the sensor in the final application.

    Virginia DoT faced a challenge common to many highway authorities around the world: the need, in economically challenging times, to replace ageing variable message signs reaching the end of their operational life. For some 25 years now, since the mid 80s, Virginia Department of Transportation (VDoT), has deployed variable message signs (VMS) as part of its motorist information systems. Throughout the state there are still many old 'flip-disk' signs. Some of the companies that provided these electronic messa
