The new Groeneveld camera has more than proved itself in the Dakar monster rally
A final super-tough practical trial on all the Dakar rally trucks of the winning Team Petronas De Rooy Iveco and the Veka Man Team marks the successful end to the extensive field testing of the new generation of 5693 Groeneveld cameras. Groeneveld says it is now ready to launch a completely new camera, developed and produced inhouse. Combined with the the company’s high-resolution monitor. also produced in-house, the CMOS colour camera ensures a perfect image, even in bright light, at night or in poor weather conditions. The newly developed CMOS colour camera is available with viewing angles of 104° or 116° and with normal or reversed image, which means it can be used for a host of applications: as a front or side view camera on trucks and buses, or on the back of trucks, earthmoving equipment and forklifts, for example. The gas-filled camera has a black anodised aluminium housing and can be supplied with either a U-shaped or L-shaped mounting bracket. Because Greensight products are used all over the world under the most challenging conditions, such as earthmoving and mining, the new camera meets all possible CE, DIN and EMC standards, whilst it has also been certified for ADR applications for use in the transportation of hazardous substances.

    Bob Lees, co-founder of Diamond Consulting Services, on why the loop detector just refuses to go away. The more strident proponents of newer and emergent detection technologies are quick to highlight what they see as the disadvantages, and hence the imminent passing, of the humble inductive loop. The more prosaic will acknowledge that loops continue to have a part to play in traffic management, falling back on the assertion that it is all a question of application. And yet year after year the loop, despite

    Unbroken service Technolution's Winifred Roggekamp and Dave Marples describe efforts to upgrade the Westerscheldetunnel's tolling system to give free-flow capability. Until 2003 the Flanders region of Zeeland, in the south-west of the Netherlands, was connected to the mainland only by ferry. The new Westerscheldetunnel, a 6.6km toll tunnel, improves communications with the region considerably, taking some 100km off the alternative road journey. In 2006 it was recognised that the toll plaza for the tunnel ne

    Increasing the capability of automatic number plate recognition should go hand-in-hand with efforts to ensure number plates' integrity, says the ESVA's Viv Nicholas. Before we apply increasingly sophisticated technology to Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), says the European Secure Vehicle Alliance's (ESVA's) executive director Viv Nicholas, there is a lot we can do to make the task of vehicle recognition simpler by addressing issues relating to the number plate itself.
