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.

    Traffic engineers can use the latest advances in vision technology to streamline and enhance traffic management. The idea of using one camera to perform all functions at an intersection is attractive to authorities for many reasons and camera supplier Gridsmart says it can make this happen. Its Bell Camera offers a horizon to horizon view that includes the centre of the intersection where vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians cross paths and it can be used for traffic light actuation, traffic data collection a

As ITS industry stakeholders converge on Amsterdam for the 2010 Cooperative Mobility Showcase, an unprecedentedly wide range of technologies will be on display demonstrating what might be achievable in the future from innovations based on Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications.

    Jason Barnes looks at Daimler’s Intelligent Drive programme to consider how machine vision has advanced the state of the art of vision-based in-vehicle systems. Traditionally, radar was the in-vehicle Driver Assistance System (DAS) technology of choice, particularly for applications such as adaptive cruise control and pre-crash warning generation. Although vision-based technology has made greater inroads more recently, it is not a case of ‘one sensor wins’. Radar and vision are complementary and redundancy
