The high angular resolution of 4 degrees is expected to detect, differentiate and locate objects in real time. These advantages are particularly noticeable while monitoring heavy-traffic intersections and complex infrastructures, the company adds.

According to InnoSent, the radar system simultaneously determines the speed, position, direction of movement and distance of up to 128 objects. It breaks these down into the classes of truck, van, car and non-motorised and assigns them to one of up to eight detectable lanes.

The tracking function provides information about the movement history of road users and helps keep track of vehicles.

    Level 2 driver assistance vehicles have little problem reading fixed metal signs at the roadside - but it’s a different story with VMS in tunnels, finds Alan Dron. Following a series of hands-free driving tests in tunnels, an Australian road authority believes that car manufacturers have to up their game before vehicles have the required levels of competence to consistently perform ‘assisted driving’ tasks. The trials, in the state of Victoria late last year, tested the ability of several vehicles to stay

    Hitting an animal on a rural road can be fatal for all parties involved – but detecting and avoiding them requires clever technology. Andrew Williams carefully scans the horizon for details. Wildlife-vehicle collisions are an ever-present threat in rural areas around the world, and there is certainly nothing funny about suddenly finding an angry moose in your headlights on a sharp bend. A variety of detection and avoidance systems are currently in use or under development to help prevent your vehicle being
