Traffic Technology has released the Argos AI portable traffic analyser, which the company says provides mobile traffic data collection with artificial intelligence and computer vision.

The battery-powered unit offers up to 48 hours of continuous use, and uses roadside computer vision to provide real-time classification of 10 classes of vehicles, from bicycles to multi-axle HGVs with trailers.

The system can be rapidly deployed, with on-site data validation and full GDPR compliance built in.

In addition to vehicle classification, it is designed to be used at traffic hubs, where it records turning behaviour; roundabouts, for origin/destination traffic surveys; and multi-lane roads, for vehicle volume.

Detailed evaluation of data is available with the web-based communication platform myTrafficdata 2.0.

Richard Toomey, Traffic Technology MD, says: “With true edge technology, data is available instantly without the need to transmit files to costly server farms or overseas processing facilities.”

    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c
