518 Allied Vision Technologies (AVT) has introduced the 2255 Prosilica GT GigE Vision camera series which offers an extended operating temperature range and optimised image processing functions.

Capable of operating at extreme temperatures from -10°C to +60°C and in changing lighting conditions, the Prosilica GT has been designed for demanding outdoor applications such as traffic and security monitoring, surveillance and aviation/space flights.

The cameras feature a host of functions to cope with external weather conditions, as well as the latest CCD sensors, precise iris lens control and image optimisation. Resolutions from VGA to six megapixel and frame rates of up to 119 frames per second are available, allowing for high speed burst images, often required for traffic control to capture multiple images of a passing vehicle and licence plate recognition.

    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni
