AGD upgrades traffic control radar

UK manufacturer AGD Systems has upgraded its 318 Traffic Control Radar to detect stationary and queuing traffic. The company says the solution provides a cost-effective alternative for local authorities using in-ground detection from their road networks. According to AGD, the pole-mounted solution provides virtual loop detection with speed discrimination and can emulate two inductive loops to a range of 150m or provide lane-specific detection up to 40m for a range of applications. Additionally, the

UK manufacturer 559 AGD Systems has upgraded its 318 Traffic Control Radar to detect stationary and queuing traffic. The company says the solution provides a cost-effective alternative for local authorities using in-ground detection from their road networks.

According to AGD, the pole-mounted solution provides virtual loop detection with speed discrimination and can emulate two inductive loops to a range of 150m or provide lane-specific detection up to 40m for a range of applications.

Additionally, the solution also now uses WiFi AGD Touch-setup and an enhanced graphical user interface to help users change detection zones more easily.

Ian Hind, AGD’s commercial director, says the radar also offers flexibility for MOVA schemes, speed discrimination, bus priority and single turning movements.

    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

    Golden River Traffic, part of the Clearview Traffic Group, has unveiled the M100, a new road traffic data collection system that uses secure radio technology as a more reliable, lower cost and easier to install alternative to the use of inductive loops. It can be used for count and classify or for traffic light control and is suitable for all Urban Traffic Control (UTC) systems. Golden River says it offers a likely cost saving across 10 years of installation of as much as 46 per cent.
