Teledyne 7311 Lumenera has launched a camera which it claims provides automated traffic image analysis, with integrated self-triggering vehicle detection and automated number plate recognition.

Built on the Teledyne Lumenera Ls series embedded vision platform, the Ls245R traffic camera is expected to detect vehicles on high-speed freeways and extract number plate information.

The company says the camera can extract all data without needing a separate computer, allowing image processing to run all hours by automatically controlling a lens shuttle to flip between a day and night mode.

According to Teledyne, Ls245R optimises network traffic by sending images that are already processed or just sending metadata for each number plate the camera extracts.

Images and data are stored on the device - even in the event of a network outage - and queued up for delivery when a network connection is established, the company adds.

    New CCD camera from Lumenera
    The Lt365R USB 3.0 CCD camera from Lumenera runs at 53fps at full resolution or 66fps at an HDTV resolution of 1,920 x 1,088. It takes advantage of Lumenera’s memory buffer technology which ensures that frames are not lost while running the camera at the sensor’s maximum output. Lumenera states that the Lt365R runs at twice the speed of other USB 3.0 cameras on this image sensor.

    Machine vision’s image of road management’s future
    Q-Free’s Marco Sinnema looks at how the commoditisation of high-quality vision-based solutions is widening their application. Machine vision technology’s entry into the ITS/traffic management sector has followed a classic top-down path. This is unsurprising given the extremely demanding performance criteria which are the standard in its market of origin, manufacturing processing. Very high image qualities combined with frame rates often in the hundreds per second range resulted in vision systems with capabi

    Cellint measures speed and travel time without roadside infrastructure
    Collecting speed and travel time data without using roadside infrastructure could offer new possibilities to cash-strapped road authorities. Streaming video may be useful for traffic controllers to monitor incidents and automatic number plate recognition may be required for enforcement, but neither are necessary for many ITS functions. For instance travel times, tailbacks, percentage of vehicles turning, origin and destination analysis can all be done using Bluetooth and/or WI-Fi sensors and without video o
