290 Aldis has announced the latest release of the GridSmart solution for video vehicle detection and traffic data collection. One of the most visible new features of the GridSmart 3.2 is the replay feature that allows users to record and playback image data complete with information on zone presence and signal state. Even in the replay mode, users are still able to take advantage of the virtual pan-tilt-zoom feature and other standard GridSmart capabilities. This feature is useful for traffic engineers wishing to review traffic patterns and driver behaviour during certain times of day, special events or other incidents.

The optional GridSmart Data Module has new improved report templates, as well as a new incident report to provide statistics on illegal turning movements and red-light runs. Also available in the module is a Raw Data Export feature that allows GridSmart data to be exported in an open format for use within another system for traffic simulation or modelling. Another new feature is automatic export to USB from the GridSmart Central Processing Unit (CPU), as well as automatic data-import from USB within the GridSmart Data Module.

    Jo Versavel, Managing Director of Traficon, talks about near-term trends in video camera systems. Jo Versavel starts by making one thing clear: long-term forecasts as to what the future holds for video-based traffic monitoring are to all intents and purposes meaningless. The state of the art is developing so fast that in reality it's impossible to say where we'll be in 10 years' time, says the Managing Director of Traficon. In his opinion making firm predictions even five years out is too ambitious, whereas

To that end he has gathered together a group composed of insurers, telematics providers and other intere
