819 NavTech Radar is demonstrating its AdvanceGuard wide area surveillance solution in a live busy environment, in the middle of Hammersmith Road in Central London during TranSec 2013.  AdvanceGuard will be shown with the analytical control software suite, Witness and integrated with the new Predator TC100 Day/Night camera from 360Vision.

AdvanceGuard enables sites under surveillance to be divided into multiple zones with varying threat and detection levels, identifying and classifying the movement of multiple targets within the range of the radar which are in turn recorded within an audit log. The benefit of such analytical software means the system can be configured to manage, and greatly reduce, the number of false or nuisance alarms, while still giving security the best possible advanced warning and tracking of genuine, real time intrusion within a site and or the approaches to its perimeter.

Keith Chapman, head of global sales at Navtech Radar, says, “At the show, we will be demonstrating our capability for wide area surveillance in an extremely demanding environment.  The key aim of the live demonstration is to show how the AdvanceGuard solution can detect, track people and vehicle movement over a wide area.”

    Level 2 driver assistance vehicles have little problem reading fixed metal signs at the roadside - but it’s a different story with VMS in tunnels, finds Alan Dron. Following a series of hands-free driving tests in tunnels, an Australian road authority believes that car manufacturers have to up their game before vehicles have the required levels of competence to consistently perform ‘assisted driving’ tasks. The trials, in the state of Victoria late last year, tested the ability of several vehicles to stay

    Navtech Radar has launched a sensor to complement its ClearWay solution and provide automatic incident detection (AID) coverage in highways and tunnels for 175m in both directions. Phil Avery, the company’s managing director, claims that the solution is ideal for applications where line-of-sight is limited. Called CTS175, the solution features Clearview’s AID solution and can be used for traffic applications, including roads, tunnels and bridges.

Inrix’s prediction that the cost of traffic congestion will rise by 63% to £21bn per year by 2030 clearly illustrates that, in addition to the ongoing inconvenience and inefficiency, ongoing gridlock is a significant drain on the economy. It is against this backdrop that a Cisco-led consortium has launched CitySpire, a smart transport programme that uses location-based services a
