Spain-headquartered TSS-2195 Transport Simulation Systems has announced new developments in its 16 Aimsun transport modelling software with the development of a hybrid simulator.

According to the company, Aimsun has long been the only modelling application on the market with integrated micro, meso and macro simulation. "However, instead of viewing the modelling tools as separate and incompatible entities, a more effective method is to regard each individual component as part of an overall toolbox," says Jaime Ferrer, TSS managing director. "Some engineering projects require the superior granularity of microsimulation but also the scale of mesoscopic modelling. Few transport engineering projects can be neatly categorised as 'static assignment' or 'microscopic' and indeed, such categorisation is no longer realistic or even desirable." The hybrid simulation features a concurrent mesoscopic and microscopic approach.

    Jenoptik Robot’s Ralf Schmitz talks about enforcement deployments in developing countries, and how those with long-established histories still have much to learn. In the enforcement sector, the concept of technology provider also being responsible for operations is hardly a new one. Nevertheless, it has gained significant traction over the last five or six years and has the potential to radically change the complexion of the industry according to Jenoptik Robot’s Director, Sales Ralf Schmitz.

    What future is there for automatic number plate recognition? Will it be supplanted by electronic vehicle identification, or will continuing development maintain the technology's relevance? In recent years, digitisation and IP-based communication networks have allowed Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to achieve ever-greater utility and a commensurate increase in deployments. But where does the technology go next - indeed, does it have a future in the face of the increasing use of, for instance, Dedi
