As transportation agencies across the US continue to search for methods to communicate the latest traveller information to motorists, variable message sign supplier 32 Daktronics has expanded its range of DMS to include high resolution full-colour technology.

The company’s latest Vanguard 20mm full-colour DMS are available in the VF-2020 walk-in and the VF-2420 front access DMS, as well as the new VX-2420 and VX-2428 models which provide dynamic content control for individual lane management with the added benefit of housing critical electronic components in an easily accessible roadside equipment cabinet.

All Daktronics DMS continue to meet industry ITS standards, including NTCIP 1203 v03, NEMA TS-4, AASHTO, UL, ANSI/AWS D1.2 Structural Welding Code, FCC and NEC.

“Through increased implementation of graphic-aided text, full-colour DMS will continue to improve safety, relieve congestion and more effectively communicate with drivers. The innate versatility of full-colour DMS helps advance transportation agencies toward those goals,” said Mike Weinberg, Daktronics product manager.

    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a
