7545 Lector Vision has supplied the city of Rzeszow in Poland with its Traffic Eye automatic licence plate recognition (ALPR) system for the city's Smart City project.

This major project comprises traffic management, public transportation, driver's real time information delivery, travel time calculation based on ALPR, video surveillance, etc.

For this project, Lector Vision supplied over 70 Traffic Eye units with a multilane configuration, reading the plates of more than 130 lanes.

Tough winter environmental conditions in the city meant the ALPR system had to be able of working at very low temperatures of -30 degrees C, providing not only high performance, but also high reliability in extreme climates.

Lector Vision's Traffic Eye is an ALPR all in one unit designed for high performance and high reliability with IP67 certification. The unit includes a temperature and humidity sensor as well as an internal heater, which allows the system to increase its internal temperature to augment the dew point (temperature at which condensation is produced) or to avoid the temperature dropping below the optimum range of its internal components.

    Smart cities are going to be amazing community hubs that will be more sustainable, efficient and supportive of citizens, according to a new report, Australia - Smart Cities - People, Transport, Cars, Buildings from reportbuyer.com. The concept of smart communities is based on intelligent infrastructure such as broadband (FttP) and smart grids, so that connected and sustainable communities can be developed.

    Refurbishing old dynamic message signs can save money and increase technical capabilities as David Crawford discovers. Evidence is growing on both sides of the Atlantic of the scope for retrofitting old or technically out-of-date dynamic message signs (DMS) with new electronic equipment, to save on the costs of installing full-scale replacements. In the last four months of 2014, a number of US states progressed programmes that achieved savings of more than US$1.75 million (€1.56million).

    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni
