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.

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.

  • Temporary traffic monitoring with Bluetooth and wi-fi
    May 31, 2013
    David Crawford reviews developments in temporary ITS. Widespread take-up of technologies such as Bluetooth and wi-fi are encouraging the emergence of more sophisticated, while still cost effective, ITS responses to the traffic issues posed by temporary road situations such as work zones and special events. Andy Graham of traffic solutions specialists White Willow Consulting says: “A machine-to-machine radio link is far easier and cheaper than reading characters on a plate.” There can be other plusses.

  • Cost benefit: just $25 boosts pedestrian safety in Florida
    April 29, 2019
    A relatively straightforward change to the way that pedestrians cross the street in a Florida city has made a significant safety improvement. And what’s more, it was cheap, finds David Crawford Installing a lead pedestrian interval (LPI) system at 25 central business district signalised intersections in the Florida city of Lakeland has cut numbers of incidents involving pedestrians by some 60% - at a cost of US$25 for 30 minutes' work, according to traffic operations manager Angelo Rao.
