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.

In light of the concerns about the ongoing security threat and the unprecedented flow of migrants, many of the countries that make up the Schengen Area in Europe have re-introduced border controls. For its part, Sweden has rolled out ID checks for train, bus and ferry passengers from Denmark placing the landmark Øresund Bridge very much on the fr

    Iteris is using Intertraffic to introduce two important safety innovations. The first is a new video-based bicycle detection system, SmartCycle, which the company says has the unique capability of distinguishing bicycles from other vehicles on the road in any lane. This process provides a special output that is sent to the traffic controller to extend the green time when bicycles are detected, allowing them to safely cross the intersection before the light changes. “Cycling is a way of life in Amsterd

    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne
