6626 Image Sensing Systems’ non-intrusive radar-based Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 advanced traffic sensor operates in the microwave band to provide a complete, cost-effective above-ground traffic detection solution.

The device’s all-in-one concept combines a high resolution radar and a variety of communications options including wireless solutions all in a single enclosure. This sleek cabinet-free detection station is simple to integrate into any system, whether urban signal control or highway traffic management.

The pole-mounted sensor provides per-lane presence as well as volume, occupancy, speed and classification information in up to 12 user-defined detection zones.

Output information is provided to existing controllers via contact closure and to other computing systems by serial or TCP/IP communication port. A single radar can replace multiple inductive loop detectors.

    After several years’ experience of loop detector failures, primarily identified as being caused by damage from roadworks or degradation of aging road surfaces, Aberdeen City Council opted to use the Golden River M100 wireless detection system from Clearview Traffic. Each compact M100 sensor is typically installed in the middle of a traffic lane where it detects the presence and passage of vehicles and communicates this information wirelessly to the traffic signal controller via an access point and contact c
