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.

    Monitoring traffic flows is set to become an even bigger challengebut a revolution in camera technology can help, as Patrik Anderson explains. By 2025 almost 60% of the world’s population will live in urban areas and in those cities there will be an estimated 6.2 billion private motorised trips every day. In order to manage this level of traffic growth, traffic management centres (TMCs) will need to both increase their monitoring capabilities and be able to detect traffic problems quickly, efficiently and r

    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
