189 Siemens Building Technologies is introducing the next generation of its FibroLaser line heat detection system, which is based on a fibre-optic cable and suited for road and train tunnels as well as for industrial applications. The third generation of this fire safety solution offers even faster and more precise detection over an area of up to 2x10km in length. Each zone of up to 1,000 alarms can be configured for different criteria and used to control functions such as alarm elements, ventilation, or lighting. The FibroLaser III controller operates in an ambient temperature range from -10° to 60°C and requires no fans for cooling. The fire safety solution is complemented by new FibroManager control software.

The Pod uses road sensors to detect the presence of vehicles, and can be used individually for a smaller zone or grouped with other Pods to create a larger, smarter detection zone. The omni-directional antenna will detect sensors from hundr

    Daimler’s Mercedes-Benz Future Bus made its first autonomous trip on a public road recently, when it was driven at speeds of up to 70 km/h on a section of a bus rapid transit route in Amsterdam in the Netherlands. The 20 kilometre route, which links Schiphol Airport with the town of Haarlem, provided a challenge for the bus, with its numerous bends, tunnels and traffic signals. Although a driver was on board for safety reasons, for the most part the bus met the challenge autonomously, stopping at bus sto
