ISS upgrades cycle detection software

Image Sensing Systems has released Autoscope software version 10.5.0, which includes the new Autoscope Cyclescope bicycle differentiation and detection feature. Cyclescope enhances cycle detection capability and adds the ability to differentiate between cycles and motorised vehicles as they approach a junction. A significant advantage to Cyclescope is that it doesn’t require additional roadway markings, product purchases or equipment installations or maintenance.

6626 Image Sensing Systems has released Autoscope software version 10.5.0, which includes the new Autoscope Cyclescope bicycle differentiation and detection feature.  

Cyclescope enhances cycle detection capability and adds the ability to differentiate between cycles and motorised vehicles as they approach a junction.  A significant advantage to Cyclescope is that it doesn’t require additional roadway markings, product purchases or equipment installations or maintenance.

The Cyclescope feature allows traffic engineers to offer cycle timings in their traffic control strategy with minimal changes to the junction control configuration, without having to make changes to the traffic controller.  Agencies can configure the data collection to help them demonstrate the success of their bicycle-friendly programs.

"The Autoscope Cyclescope feature takes bicycle detection to the next level.  It can detect and differentiate bicycles made of any material on any approaching lane at no additional cost to the partner, customer, or end user,” said Keith Hofkens, product manager at Image Sensing Systems.

    A traffic signal control scheme in Utah is being taken up by other US authorities. David Crawford finds out how the Beehive State is leading the way in DoT and driver savings Growing numbers of US state departments of transportation (DoTs) and their road users are gaining real financial benefits from an advanced approach to traffic signal monitoring recently developed in Utah. Central to the system is its use of automated traffic signal performance measures (ATSPM) technology, brought in to improve th

    Jason Barnes asks leading machine vision industry figures what they consider to be the educational barriers to the technology’s increased uptake by the ITS sector. The recent rush by some organisations within the ITS sector to associate themselves with the term ‘machine vision’ underlines just how important the technology has become in a relatively short space of time. However, despite the technology having been applied in certain traffic management applications for some years, there remains a significant s

    The growing popularity of hybrids and electric vehicles gives rise to new safety issues in urban environments, as many of the aural cues associated with engine noise can be missing. The solution is to intelligently make vehicles noisier. The rise in popularity of hybrids and Electric Vehicles (EVs) is a result of environmental pressures, shifts in taxation and emerging technologies for batteries and motors. Competition among the car manufacturers means these vehicles need to be cost effective to buy and ope

  • Adopting universal technology platforms for tolling

    Dave Marples of Technolution argues that the continuing development of tolling-specific onboard equipment is leading us up a blind alley. We should, he says, be looking to realise universal platforms with universal application. The near-future automobile contains information systems of a sophistication to rival a jet airliner of only a few years ago, yet is 'piloted' by a considerably less well-trained individual of highly variable mental and physical capacity, and operated in a hostile, unpredictable and p
