Siqura's BC14WDR camera
Advanced video surveillance solutions manufacturer 572 Siqura, a member of the 2075 TKH Group, has announced that its newest cameras will use the Seawolf image sensor from 2076 Pixim which, the company says, are renowned for their excellent image control, superior performance in extreme lighting and low-light conditions, and 690 HTVL effective resolution.

According to Siqura, this development, as well as a range of other advanced features on its BC14 camera makes it ideal for applications using video analytics algorithms, such as Automatic Incident Detection (AID). Moreover, video codecs can take advantage of the Siqura BC14's progressive scan output for smooth motion video without the need for de-interlacing. This camera can be powered from AC or DC. Through an intuitive and straightforward on-screen display interface, which is easy to access remotely via RS-485 or up-the-coax systems, users can optimise the imaging controls or configure features such as privacy masks.

    Jason Barnes asks leading machine vision industry figures what they consider to be the educational barriers to the technology’s increased uptake by the ITS sector. The recent rush by some organisations within the ITS sector to associate themselves with the term ‘machine vision’ underlines just how important the technology has become in a relatively short space of time. However, despite the technology having been applied in certain traffic management applications for some years, there remains a significant s

    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
