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.

    As authorities strive to reduce expenditure and carbon emissions, Colin Sowman looks at some of the smart ways of managing street lighting while containing costs and maintaining safety. Street lighting can account for 40% of an authority’s energy consumption. So, faced with the need to reduce outgoings, some authorities are looking for smart ways of managing street lighting or even turning off swathes of street lights in the small hours. Back in 2008 the E-street Initiative report concluded that authorities

  • Vehicle manufacturers and local authorities seek satnav solutions
    December 5, 2013
    The increasing capability of satellite navigation is helping vehicle manufacturers and local authorities as well as individual drivers and fleets. In comparison to the physical ITS infrastructure in towns and cities and on motorways and highways, satellite navigation (satnav) systems have come a long way in a short time. Many (if not the majority) individual drivers and fleets use or have access to a satnav and now the vehicle manufacturers and even local authorities are beginning to utilise satnav derived

    Integrating control rooms can improve traffic management, security and emergency response without excessive cost or compromising privacy. In the wake of the recent terrorist events in France and Germany where the transport system was exploited with deadly consequences, many governments and agencies are reviewing the security arrangements – particularly around popular and high profile events. Increasing security in transport systems that must remain accessible to the general public will not be easy but in ma

  • North Florida signals coordinated approach to congestion management
    October 7, 2013
    David Crawford investigates innovative congestion management in Florida. The largest US city by area is well into the implementation of an ambitious congestion management system (CMS) on the scale of those of higher-profile centres such as Seattle and San Francisco. Regional agency the North Florida Transportation Planning Organisation (NFTPO) aims to ensure that commuters on major highways in Jacksonville can rely on a minimum 72km/h (45mph) driving speed in normal conditions.
