    February 7, 2018
    Implementing a Dedicated Short-Range Communication (DSRC) above cellular communications is expected to be $13.50 (£9.70) to $15 (£10) lower per Telematics Control Unit than implementing a Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything (C-V2X) solution, according to US-based ABI Research’s analysis of vehicle to everything (V2X). It follows industry discussions which have compared DSRC and C-V2X as technology alternatives for enabling V2X in vehicles to help prevent accidents.

    Lucid Vision Labs has launched four Triton GigE vision cameras which it says can be used for ITS applications and traffic systems due to its IP67 protection rating. The cameras, which feature an interface for long cables up to 100m, come with M12 Ethernet and M8 I/O connectors to provide a robust connection resistant to shock and vibration - and also protected from dirt, dust and water. Also, the range is expected to offer an operating temperature ranging from -20°C to 55°C ambient to help ensure reliab
