5574 Traficon has announced its first automatic incident detection (AID) board for analysing images coming from network cameras. The new multi-functional Video Image Processor for traffic control (VIP-IP) has been developed to respond to the upcoming trend towards IP cameras, and is being launched at the same time as Flux, a new video detection management system.

VIP-IP integrates AID, data collection, vehicle presence detection, digital recording of pre- and post-incident video sequences and streaming video in one board for a variety of traffic management applications such as tunnels, highways and bridges.

Flux collects traffic data, events, alarms and video images generated by the VIP system, and this intelligent software platform provides a user-friendly interface for real-time traffic monitoring and powerful event alerting.

Measuring 1.5km in length, the double-deck Prado Sud tunnel extends Marseille’s existing 2.5km Prado Carénage tunnel towards the southern part of the city. While it was logical to use a common control room and to use the latest detection and monitoring systems in the new tunnel, it was deemed too disruptive and costly to completely upgrade the existing tunnel.
