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.

    Guillaume Ponsar, tunnel safety engineer with Egis Road Operation, writes about the advantages to be gained from the use of tunnel simulators. Major tunnel disasters over the last decade and more have shown how swiftly and badly a simple crash or fire may evolve should the wrong actions be taken by control room operators or traffic managers. Global safety issues and the reactions of operations staff have now become the principal concerns for Operations and Maintenance (O&M) service providers. As a result, n

    Two decades after the death of the inductive loops was predicted, Matt Zinn, technical services manager at Eberle Design says the technology still offers advantages. More than 20 years ago the emergence of video detection systems led many to foretell the end of inductive loops. In the intervening years advocates of radar, infrared and wireless detection technologies have also claimed that loops were on their way out. But in fact, by all calculations, the use of loops has actually increased and although

    Jenoptik’s Uwe Urban looks at the advantages of ‘sensor fusion’ for the ITS sector. When considering the ideal sensing and monitoring system to enable the ITS sector to deliver improvements in mobility and road safety, for general policing security and border protection, we have to think beyond radar-base systems or laser scanners. What is needed today are solutions for detecting and tracking vehicles while recording evidence to deacide if any action is necessary. There is no sole sensor capable of

    Timothy Compston finds out if exchanging traffic and road condition data with private app developers makes sense for both drivers and road authorities. Much has been said about the potential benefits for authorities in sharing data with traffic and navigation app developers, and receiving ‘crowdsourced’ information in return – so how is it working in practice?
