Enhanced Videology

Videology has announced an enhanced version of its popular 20D389 B&W camera board. An optional fast shutter speed control has been added to make more complex high-speed applications possible, while changes to the shutter speed, which can vary from 1/200th to 1/100,000th of a second, can be implemented within one field.

1047 Videology has announced an enhanced version of its popular 20D389 B&W camera board. An optional fast shutter speed control has been added to make more complex high-speed applications possible, while changes to the shutter speed, which can vary from 1/200th to 1/100,000th of a second, can be implemented within one field.

According to the company, its 20D389FS is an excellent choice for applications such as licence plate detail capture at high speeds, barcode data on ships arriving in ports, or information on special government vehicles. Data is imaged within a small field of view and it is easily achieved even with varying levels of illumination, plate reflectivity or shadows. A specific I²C interface detail is supplied so the OEM can create the appropriate interface schema to optimise the device's capability.

    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c

    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the

    Machine vision techniques hold the potential to solve a multitude of challenges facing the transportation sector Optical Character Recognition (OCR), the base technology for number plate recognition, has been in industrial use for more than three decades. It is a prime example of how, instead of having to start from scratch, the transportation sector can leverage and adapt the machine vision expertise already used in industry in order to provide robust solutions with new capabilities. “The real val
