820 NDI Recognition Systems has launched the ST200, a new rapid deployment Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system designed for use in a wide range of covert and overt applications in both mobile and static modes. The ST200 can simultaneously process up to two lanes of high-speed, high-density traffic and multiple units can be networked to provide a 'ring of steel' capability.

The ST200 is a rugged, compact and portable ANPR system with wireless HSUPA (3G) and WiFi connectivity which can be deployed and operational within minutes. It features a powerful 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with a Windows operating system running high-speed frame grabbers and the Talon ANPR software, a proprietary neural network recognition engine that is claimed to deliver significantly higher performance and accuracy than OCR-based ANPR systems.

The system can handle four video inputs from two 'Dual' ANPR cameras providing full-colour contextual overview imagery and high-quality number plate capture using IR at speeds of up to four plates per second, significantly faster than other systems. Over 2 million time-stamped images and pre- and post-capture videos can be securely stored on the system along with local hotlists which are managed by direct connection to Web-based services such as BOF or the NDI-RS back office called VISCE.

    3M is investing $1.3million to expand its research center to develop and test tolling and public safety products, and customers can use it too. When 3M opened its Transportation Safety Research Center (TSRC) in the 1970s it was as an extension of its research facilities. More than a showcase for innovation, the center was—and continues to be—a dynamic outdoor laboratory where new traffic materials, systems, vehicle safety and public safety products are tested in real-world conditions. Now, with 3M expanding

In 1984 when the Miami-Dade Department of Transportation and Public Works’ (DTPW) Metrorail system was launched in southern Florida, trains ran 18km along a single line and stopped at 10 stations.
