Traffic imaging system from JAI

The Viscam 1000 developed by vehicle imaging systems and components manufacturer JAI is a high resolution all-in-one imaging system suitable for video tolling, tolling enforcement, congestion charging, red light and speed enforcement, and a wide range of other ITS applications. The system utilises a JAI-developed five megapixel, 75 fps CMOS monochrome or colour camera with global shutter, paired with a custom-fitted lens providing crisp details across a wide field of view.

The Viscam 1000 developed by vehicle imaging systems and components manufacturer 78 JAI is a high resolution all-in-one imaging system suitable for video tolling, tolling enforcement, congestion charging, red light and speed enforcement, and a wide range of other ITS applications.

The system utilises a JAI-developed five megapixel, 75 fps CMOS monochrome or colour camera with global shutter, paired with a custom-fitted lens providing crisp details across a wide field of view.

Depending on plate styles, a single Viscam 1000 system provides sufficient pixel resolution (2560 x 2048) to produce readable plate images across multiple traffic lanes, enabling the system to be used for free-flow tolling schemes (and law enforcement applications where vehicles may be changing lanes as they pass through the camera’s field of view.

Featuring a compact weatherproof enclosure, the system is easy to integrate with existing in-road loops or laser triggers and incorporates a built-in video triggering system featuring advanced algorithms to trigger the camera based on changes within the field of view.

    Theia develops innovative distortion-free ultra-wide-angle lenses
    Today’s high-resolution cameras have many advantages if they have the right lens for the job. When that includes covering large areas or reducing cost by installing fewer cameras, you need a wide-angle lens. Fisheye style lenses with barrel distortion are routinely used to cover an ultra-wide field of view; however, they create a curved and distorted image which causes significant loss of resolution at the image edges. This presents a variety of issues for ITS applications such as difficulty in identification or recognition of objects and details.

    Xerox video enforcement deters stopped-bus overtaking
    High resolution cameras, video motion detection and modems are being fitted to school buses in Maryland, as part of a system designed to enforce and deter stopped-bus overtaking violations. A new video enforcement system is being installed to record drivers illegally overtaking school buses in Frederick County, Maryland. It is against the law to overtake a parked school bus that is loading or unloading students, yet a 2011 survey for the Maryland Department of Education found 7,000 cases of drivers illegall

    Allied Vision launches cost-effective Goldeye camera
    Allied Vision has released a new entry-level Goldeye model for the short wave infrared spectrum (SWIR), the Goldeye G-008 SWIR, which has all the features and benefits of the current Goldeye camera family, including all image correction and optimisation functionalities. It is equipped with a smaller resolution sensor, making infrared imaging affordable for many cost-sensitive applications in which the lower resolution is enough to do the job. The Goldeye G-008 SWIR is fitted with a QVGA InGaAs sensor (320 x
