542 Global Traffic Technologies (GTT), has added speed, class and count capabilities to its Canoga 9000 series, using a single width four-channel traffic management card in place of the traditional two cards system.

Canoga includes Ethernet to connect to GTT’s central management software (CMS), allowing engineers real time access key data, run customised reports and receive maintenance alerts from a remote location. Engineers can use the device to adjust timing for signalised intersections, to record state and federal mandated traffic counts, or just for a more accurate count of the number of vehicles on the road.
 
The new cards are easily interchanged with existing sensors and can capture information about vehicles in parking lots or cyclists in bike lanes.

    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti
