686 Pelco's new Spectra IV IP high-speed P/T/Z camera dome system, featuring H.264 compression, gives users the flexibility to select MJPEG, MPEG4 or industry-leading H.264 compression. Compared to MPEG4 compression, H.264 dramatically reduces bandwidth consumption and storage requirements while providing superior image quality.

"By adding our new Spectra IP TXB-N cartridge into an existing Spectra IV analogue dome system, customers can utilise IP video with H.264 compression without losing analogue viewing and control," says Pelco senior product manager, Brian Lane. "Along with H.264 compression quality, Spectra IV's improved x27 and x35 cameras feature better focus capabilities, a new lens for sharper image quality, and frame noise reduction for a cleaner image, all resulting in a better picture than ever for the customer."

On the 24th March 1999, a Belgian truck transporting flour and margarine through the 11.6km Mont Blanc tunnel caught alight when a cigarette stub entered the engine induction snorkel, lighting the paper air filter. The fire left over 30 dead and many more injured. At the time, the Mont Blanc tunnel disaster was the world’s worst tunnel fire.

    Jim Leslie, manager of ITS applications engineering at the Econolite Group looks at practical steps in transitioning from closed-loop masters to a centralised ATMS. Not many years ago the standard method of coordinating signalised intersections in local areas was to install an on-street master – each of which monitored and controlled a limited number of signal controllers or intersections as a closed-loop system. And, to a certain extent, each closed-loop system was autonomous from others deployed by the ag
