1763 Econolite has introduced its 6575 Autoscope software release Version 10.5.0 with Cyclescope, the latest free Autoscope software upgrade that provides enhanced bicycle differentiation accuracy. Cyclescope is compatible with all existing Autoscope Solo Terra, RackVision Terra, Encore, and Duo detection systems.

Cyclescope enables bicycle-differentiated detection in support of bicycle minimum green signal programming, a green signal interval length to accommodate and help ensure that bicycles can safely cross an intersection. This is often specified for traffic signal programs, as well as a standard feature of modern traffic signal controllers, including Econolite ASC/3 and Cobalt automatic traffic controllers.

“Cyclescope satisfies yet another detection objective with a single sensor,” said Scott Robinson, Econolite Autoscope product manager. “The overriding goal with Cyclescope is to provide end-users with an easy way to leverage their existing investment in Autoscope and achieve highly accurate bicycle differentiation, and Cyclescope does just that.”
