Technology company 4220 Activu has added three features to its visualisation and collaboration software platform ActivWare, which helps traffic management centres (TMCs) monitor and manage operations.


The ActivLink feature will help connect ITS systems, sensors and devices to ActiWare. The company says the Internet of Things visualisation allows time-sensitive information about critical events to be disseminated to any display or device – enabling a faster incident response.

Additionally, the ONVIF-compliant camera control module allows TMC operators to view and control ONVIF-compliant IP camera stems. It will provide users with greater flexibility, adds Activu.

ActivWare also now allows operators to work with live feeds from remote piloted drones. The integration is intended to bring information to anywhere in an organisation, including to shared video walls, desktops and mobile users.

    Network video alternative to machine vision in urban applications
    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the
