AGD launches smart city pedestrian detector

A new chip-set and sophisticated algorithms are said to enable AGD’s latest pedestrian detection systems, the AGD 645, to process information onboard and provide ultra-reliable detection and automated decision-making. Being IP-capable enables the 645 to feed real-time information and video straight into ITS control rooms to allow informed decision making. Large zone ‘super-crossing’ compatible, the detector is smart cities and highways IP capable and features high-definition 3D stereo graphics, low light de

A new chip-set and sophisticated algorithms are said to enable 559 AGD’s latest pedestrian detection systems, the AGD 645, to process information onboard and provide ultra-reliable detection and automated decision-making. Being IP-capable enables the 645 to feed real-time information and video straight into ITS control rooms to allow informed decision making.

Large zone ‘super-crossing’ compatible, the detector is smart cities and highways IP capable and features high-definition 3D stereo graphics, low light detection and simple tablet-to-device touch set-up.

    Jason Barnes looks at Daimler’s Intelligent Drive programme to consider how machine vision has advanced the state of the art of vision-based in-vehicle systems. Traditionally, radar was the in-vehicle Driver Assistance System (DAS) technology of choice, particularly for applications such as adaptive cruise control and pre-crash warning generation. Although vision-based technology has made greater inroads more recently, it is not a case of ‘one sensor wins’. Radar and vision are complementary and redundancy
