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.

Highway construction zone safety is taken seriously enough in the US to merit a special spring National Work Zone Awareness Week, which in 2010 ran from 19-23 April. Headed by the US Department of Transportation's Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), this aims to reduce an annual toll of work zone deaths - 720 in 2008 (an average of one every 10 hours) with more than 40,000 traffic injuries (an average of one every 13 minutes).

    The technical programme of this year’s ITS World Congress in Vienna includes a special session on the image of enforcement. ITS International examines the scale of the problem and what can be done about it. Debate on the merits and difficulties of enforcing speed limits appears centred on a conflict of principles. Put very simply, local communities, people living close to busy or hazardous roads, want to see traffic speeds calmed. Drivers on those roads, on the whole, want their principle of freedom to be m
