Indian traffic electronics company, 7713 Envoys, has launched its latest vehicle actuated traffic signal controller that uses wireless to control the traffic signal.  This adaptive traffic control system (ATCS) compatible controller is suitable to use at isolated intersections or as part of a synchronised chain of controllers.

The controller supports remote monitoring and management of signal plans over various communications mediums, including 3G.  Other features include optimised solar power operation, PWM-based intensity control of signal lamps, GPS/server-based distributed time synchronisation and pole mountable miniature architecture.

    Canadian company STI-Tassimco has developed the STS-22 to enable traffic authorities to easily synchronise all its traffic controllers. Featuring a GPS satellite time synchronisation module and a user friendly display, the device fits standard a NEMA or 170 detection chassis or can be mounted in its own one-position chassis, and updates the controller’s clock on a regular basis. The STS-22 will compensate for the clock’s temperature drifting and other variations observed in the field, keeping it accurat
