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.

    A new frontier in the quest to monitor road traffic is opening up… but using airborne drones to reduce the jams comes with some thorny issues. Chris Tindall reports. Imagine if you could rely on a system that provided all the data you needed to regulate traffic flow, route vehicles and respond swiftly to emergencies for a fraction of the cost of piloting a helicopter. That system exists, but as engineers and traffic managers start to explore the potential of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) – more commonly k

    The effect of moving objects on the electromagnetic landscape set up by cellular telephony networks can be detected and interpreted to give real-time traffic data across large geographical areas at low cost. Here, we revisit the Celldar concept. Global economic downturn has pushed public-sector agencies, transport administrations among them, to push even harder for cost efficiencies. Unfortunately, when it comes to transport safety and efficiency the public sector often has to work up to a cost rather than

This makes information management all the more necessary in the control room environment. But the transportation sector could do a lot to help itself by gaining a better idea up front of what and how it wants to do things, says Electrosonic's Karl Johnson.
