The DeepBlue sensor range from US-based 6626 Image Sensing Systems offers a simple to deploy solution for traffic monitoring.


Suitable for obtaining online travel time information and origin/destination information for improved infrastructure planning, the auto-configured, easy-to-install, side-fire sensor detects the Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals from vehicles including hands-free sets, mobile phones and navigation systems.

The sensors have specially designed antennas for extreme sensitivity, longer range and faster scanning for enhanced detection of fast moving vehicles in up to 12 lanes of traffic and can be installed on existing roadside poles.

    Flir updates ThermiCam2 thermal traffic sensor and detector
    Flir has upgraded its thermal traffic sensor and detector with traffic data collection features. The company says ThermiCam2 uses thermal energy emitted from road users – rather than light - to detect vehicles and vulnerable road users at night, over long distances and in harsh weather conditions. According to Flir, the solution can be used to detect vehicles and bicycles approaching an intersection, detect wrong-way drivers, count and distinguish vehicles from bicycles and collect traffic data using the

    Bluetooth aids rail passenger monitoring
    In an effort to reduce congestion and improve passenger flow at railway stations in the Netherlands, Danish software company Blip Systems and Dutch railway consultants NPC have teamed up to monitor passenger movements using Bluetooth and wi-fi tracking. In an eight-week study at Groningen railway station, Blip Systems has installed 22 of its BlipTrack sensors which anonymously detect wi-fi and Bluetooth-enabled devices such as mobile phones and laptops. The sensors will monitor passengers and transmit the
