Redvision upgrades VMS1000 system

October 28, 2019 Read time: 1 min

Redvision has updated its VMS1000 open-platform control system which it says can be used for traffic management and vehicle counting.

Stephen Lightfoot, technical director at Redvision, says the new object-linking feature can be used to configure “a logical flow between cameras on screen” while the field-of-view-direction depiction feature is for “fixed cameras and PTZs on maps”.

“Additionally, over 300 camera brands and 10,000 individual camera models are integrated with the VMS1000,” he adds.

VMS1000 is expected to enable analytics on presets and has dedicated buttons for the control of lights, wipers, washers and telemetry of Redvision’s X-Series rugged pan-tilt zoom (PTZ) cameras.

He says: “Our system does not direct drivers to their destination because we mainly focus on commuters who know how to get to where they are going and only need information about any delays and incidents ahead of

    Bluetooth and Wi-Fi offer new options for travel time measurements
    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c
