5574 Traficon has announced the Viewcom/E Max+, a communication board for intersection control. Its task is to transmit traffic data and alarm events issued by VIP (video image processor) vehicle presence detectors. This new module provides H.264 compressed video, which guarantees best quality video while consuming minimal network bandwidth.

It offers quad view functionality that allows an operator to quickly see the whole intersection in a mosaic of four streaming videos.

The dedicated serial communication port makes it possible to send data directly to an SDLC interface board that can connect to a TS2 controller. The support for simple network management protocol (SNMP) allows this board to be managed by any standard network management software.

  • Car parking and parked cars need not be a technological black hole
    March 19, 2015
    David Crawford mines the potential of joined-up parking. Drivers conventionally see parking as an isolated, often frustrating, action; but collectively their attempts to find a space impact hugely on traffic flows. But new analyses of parking events look set to deliver real benefits to motorists and cities alike. Initiatives getting under way around the world are highlighting the advantages of connecting up parking events and – eventually - parked cars. The hoped-for results include not only enhanced urban
