Ultrasonic vehicle detector needs no loops
8229 EMX’s Drive Thru ultrasonic vehicle sensor, USVD-4X, uses patent pending triangular planar array technology to detect the presence of a vehicle and is suitable for any drive-through operation including parking. The post- or wall-mounted detection head consists of four ultrasonic transducers and an internal microprocessor-based control board and is aimed at the vehicle entrance to initiate a transaction.

In operation the sensor scans the expected location for a vehicle and on detection activates its output without the need for any in-ground hardware.

Following a series of hands-free driving tests in tunnels, an Australian road authority believes that car manufacturers have to up their game before vehicles have the required levels of competence to consistently perform ‘assisted driving’ tasks. The trials, in the state of Victoria late last year, tested the ability of several vehicles to stay
