The SBC-2400 from Zwiesler Resources is a cost-effective traffic control system based on a single-board controller running 170 software. The integrated set of components for advanced traffic control is comprised of a CPU, power board, conflict monitor unit, traffic cabinet, traffic control software and provision for 12V solar power.

Low in cost and small enough to fit in a 30x30x30cm traffic cabinet, the system is based on the SBC-2400 Controller CPU and one or two SSC power boards to control 12 or 24 signal outputs. The CPU board accommodates eight vehicle detector inputs plus five control inputs. The maximum of 24 SSC board outputs are divided equally between two 20-pin box headers, which also bring +12 VDC into the cabinet to power the logic.

According to the company, the system meets worldwide needs for advanced traffic control in the minimum space; in addition, by being able to utilise available 170 software the system can be used for applications other than intersection control, such as ramp metering, sign control and freeway incident management.

    Collecting speed and travel time data without using roadside infrastructure could offer new possibilities to cash-strapped road authorities. Streaming video may be useful for traffic controllers to monitor incidents and automatic number plate recognition may be required for enforcement, but neither are necessary for many ITS functions. For instance travel times, tailbacks, percentage of vehicles turning, origin and destination analysis can all be done using Bluetooth and/or WI-Fi sensors and without video o

    A relatively straightforward change to the way that pedestrians cross the street in a Florida city has made a significant safety improvement. And what’s more, it was cheap, finds David Crawford Installing a lead pedestrian interval (LPI) system at 25 central business district signalised intersections in the Florida city of Lakeland has cut numbers of incidents involving pedestrians by some 60% - at a cost of US$25 for 30 minutes' work, according to traffic operations manager Angelo Rao.
