Siqura says its XCU Fusion camera dual imaging camera for demanding environments offers double protection against corrosion as it is made of powder-coated stainless steel (316L).

Additionally, the TrafficPTZ Ultimo camera is expected to provide high-definition images. The 30x optical zoom in combination with the dual LED illuminators and embedded image stabilisation make it suitable for traffic applications, the company adds.

The deployment is taking place on the 360m Valík tunnel on the D5 motorway, the Klimkovice tunnel on the D1 motorway and the Husovice tunnel in the city of Brno.

    Cognitive Technologies has joined forces with Russian manufacturer PC Transport Systems to deploy an autonomous tram on the streets of Moscow by 2022. Cognitive says that its simplified system means autonomous trams will appear on public roads much earlier than self-driving cars. The company claims its system will detect vehicle and other trams, traffic lights, pedestrians, tram and bus stops, railway and switches and obstacles. Also, the technology will allow the tram to stop in front of obstacles a
