Improved video and wireless communications from Moxa

Moxa has introduced new technology which it claims improve network reliability for smart transportation applications. V-On Video Always On is a video stream recovery technology on Moxa's latest Ethernet switches that provides 50ms redundancy for multicast video streams when used with Moxa's Turbo Ring or Turbo Chain. The company says that with a simple configuration setting, the technology enables the video stream to resume almost as quickly as the network itself.

V-On Video Always On is a video stream recovery technology on Moxa's latest Ethernet switches that provides 50ms redundancy for multicast video streams when used with Moxa's Turbo Ring or Turbo Chain. The company says that with a simple configuration setting, the technology enables the video stream to resume almost as quickly as the network itself.

Moxa’s WDR-3124A is a combination Wi-Fi and cellular router designed to enable rugged and reliable remote access to critical vehicle and passenger data. Four built-in Ethernet ports consolidate IP-based communications between the various onboard devices, sensors and cameras and the built-in cellular interface transmits critical live data while in transit. Back at base, the built-in Wi-Fi interface connects directly with the control centre to share all accumulated onboard data.

    Monitoring traffic flows is set to become an even bigger challengebut a revolution in camera technology can help, as Patrik Anderson explains. By 2025 almost 60% of the world’s population will live in urban areas and in those cities there will be an estimated 6.2 billion private motorised trips every day. In order to manage this level of traffic growth, traffic management centres (TMCs) will need to both increase their monitoring capabilities and be able to detect traffic problems quickly, efficiently and r

    The transportation sector is set to benefit from a far wider range of machine vision technology. While machine vision techniques have been applied to traffic management applications for some years, in some areas there can still be a shortage of knowledge about what the technology can offer transportation professionals. The image processing and interpretation functions of machine vision enables control room staff to be immediately alerted to occurrences requiring attention which, in turn, enables each person
