UVS unveils colour alert system

Ultimate Visual Solutions (UVS) has developed an alarm system which it says can be used in a traffic control centre where on-screen colour changes represent major fluctuations.

UVS managing director Steve Murphy says the solution provides an audible and visual alarm on the video wall.

“We are now adding this feature as an option to the standard Lucidity control software or as a standard feature within our specially priced ‘Pro’ version,” he adds.

Lucidity is aimed at clients who require a solution where full command and control components are not needed.

    Colin Sowman hears about a new truck parking information system being piloted across eight states. Legislation limits truck drivers’ hours with the result that they are often caught in a situation where they need to stop either for a break or an overnight rest. But as truck parking is in short supply, truck drivers spend an average of 56 minutes a day searching for available spaces and are often faced with the choice of driving beyond their permitted hours or parking illegally.
