High-density video server

Optelecom-NKF has released its Siqura S-68 E video server, an easy-to-install encoder that requires very little maintenance while still providing outstanding performance and reliability. With the capacity to compress and stream video in H.264 from 88 analogue cameras per one 19in/3U power supply cabinet, the company claims the S-68 E is now one of the industry's most efficient, high-density solutions, making it ideal for large, professional installations where space and cost per channel are a concern.

S-68 E is now one of the industry's most efficient, high-density solutions, making it ideal for large, professional installations where space and cost per channel are a concern. Moreover, since each module consumes a mere 0.9W per channel, the S-68 is also an environmentally friendly and cost-effective solution.

Through an intuitive access-controlled web interface, it is possible to configure an array of features included in the S-68 E, such as the use of video motion detection or serial data streams to control a PTZ camera or implement access control. Additionally, these compact video servers are based on an open streaming architecture standard that simplifies their use in third-party systems.

    David Crawford reviews developments in temporary ITS. Widespread take-up of technologies such as Bluetooth and wi-fi are encouraging the emergence of more sophisticated, while still cost effective, ITS responses to the traffic issues posed by temporary road situations such as work zones and special events. Andy Graham of traffic solutions specialists White Willow Consulting says: “A machine-to-machine radio link is far easier and cheaper than reading characters on a plate.” There can be other plusses.

    Richard Turnock, chief technology officer of Kapsch TrafficCom North America explains what advantages its newly-opened TDM protocol can offer as a US-wide standard for tolling interoperability. The electronic tolling industry across the United States is evolving. Historically it was characterised by clusters of interoperability where a motorist may be able to use the same transponder across a large area, such as the 15-State E-ZPass system, or be confined to a single State system. Now, however, the industry

    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
