4220 Activu Corporation, a leading provider of IP-based visualisation and collaboration solutions for mission-critical command and control centre environments, is now an approved video display control system listed on Florida Department of Transportation’s Approved Product List (APL). The company’s solution was approved after successful evaluation against the rigorous and comprehensive requirements of FDoT specification 782-2.2.2 for Video Display Control Systems, and after meeting all compatibility requirements for use with FDoT’s SunGuide system, the programme to manage and maintain the ITS statewide. As a result, Activu’s visualisation and collaboration solution can now be installed in traffic management centres across the state of Florida.

With Activu’s network-centric solution, the state of Florida and its counties, cities and departments (fire, police, emergency operations and others ) can easily, seamlessly and cost effectively share their traffic monitoring networks with each other and benefit from consolidated traffic intelligence and better coordination in routine conditions. And, perhaps more importantly, leverage each other’s traffic resources as backup during storms, natural disasters or other emergencies. Moreover, with the Activu system, every department can control the extent to which it allows network, camera and device access to other departments and agencies, and so retain full autonomy.

    A study has shown the extent and ramifications of wrong way driving and proposed cost-effective countermeasures. Wrong way driving collisions occur relatively infrequently but the results can be devastating. Statistics from the US National Transportation Safety Board, an independent, federal all-modes agency, reveal that wrong way (WW) driving, account for only about 3% of accidents on high-speed divided highways but are much more likely to result in fatal and serious injuries.
