smartmicro's new angle on radar detection

According to the company, this allows a theoretical 256 vehicles to be tracked at any one time at a maximum range of up to 500m.

The company says the system is unaffected by ambient conditions and can separate vehicles travelling at the same speed which can cause one to be missed. It is introducing easy set-up software but will stop short of auto-configuration because it says that leaves too many areas where errors can occur.
