AGD launches larger zone 645 pedestrian detector

AGD Systems (AGD) has upgraded its 645 Pedestrian Detector to cover a 10m x 3m zone in a standard built format to monitor new super-crossings that are being deployed internationally. The solution is said to detect people while rejecting shadows, litter, leaves and other distractions. 645 processes information on board with new chip-set and algorithms for automated decision-making with the intention of providing ultra-reliable detection.

559 AGD Systems (AGD) has upgraded its 645 Pedestrian Detector to cover a 10m x 3m zone in a standard built format to monitor new super-crossings that are being deployed internationally.

The solution is said to detect people while rejecting shadows, litter, leaves and other distractions.

645 processes information on board with new chip-set and algorithms for automated decision-making with the intention of providing ultra-reliable detection. It utilises a 3D high-definition, stereo-vision optical sensor that detects moving and stationary targets. In addition, the device has IP and real-time video capabilities, allowing it to feed data and pictures down the wire and into ITS control rooms to assist with informed, smart city decisions.

Multiple AGD detectors can be set up at the same time from a safe position on the ground, or in a vehicle up to 100m away.

    High-speed weigh-in-motion is starting to make its mark on both sides of the Atlantic. As a transit country the Czech Republic experiences a large number of overloaded vehicles, which greatly increase highway maintenance costs. This prompted its Transport Ministry to trial an extension of the capabilities of the existing truck tolling system to allow the dynamic high-speed weighing of cargo vehicles. In effect the tolling enforcement gantries become weigh-in-motion (WIM) locations.

    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni
