6965 Gardasoft Vision has announced its next-generation strobe LED for intelligent traffic solutions. The new VTR2, designed to meet the growing needs of ANPR/LPRbased applications, offers a 600 per cent increase in light output, providing the ITS market with a solid state lighting alternative to conventional xenon-based lighting solutions.

Gardasoft claims the VTR2 is now the brightest LED light available. Strobe speeds are also higher, at up to 65Hz. According to the company, these faster strobe speeds offer a solution to applications that were previously impossible due to slow strobe speeds associated with recharging times of the lights. The VTR2 can be strobed via a trigger input from a camera or it can strobe continuously in freerunning mode.

Housed within an IP-66-rated enclosure, the VTR2 lights are available in 740nm, 850nm and 940nm for non-invasive applications. A white light version is also available where additional colour data is required. The VTR range of lights have all the control electronics embedded within the light, requiring only a 24Vdc power supply to operate. Intensity and pulse timing can be controlled remotely by RS-232, RS-422 or Ethernet.

    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
