Aimsun Online in award-winning San Diego ICM project

The Aimsun Online real-time decision support system for traffic management will take centre stage at the TSS-Transport Simulation Systems stand. Its dynamic, high-speed simulation of large areas allows traffic operators to accurately forecast the future network flow patterns that will result from a particular traffic management or information provision strategy.

San Diego ICM project
The 7320 Aimsun Online real-time decision support system for traffic management will take centre stage at the TSS-Transport Simulation Systems stand. Its dynamic, high-speed simulation of large areas allows traffic operators to accurately forecast the future network flow patterns that will result from a particular traffic management or information provision strategy.

TSS will be highlighting the fact that, among other projects, Aimsun Online is the simulation-based subsystem in the decision support system (DSS) demonstrator in the Interstate 15 Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) demonstrator project in San Diego, California. With the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) heading the San Diego ICM team, the award-winning system went live in March 2013; the project is now conducting successful ICM demonstration projects that show the benefits of ICM through improvement in corridor performance.  

Due to the success of the I-15 project, FHWA/USDOT is currently evaluating new sites and corridors for the next sponsored implementations of ICM across the United States.%$Linker: 2 Asset <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><dictionary /> 4 12215 0 oLinkExternal www.aimsun.com Aimsun website false /EasySiteWeb/GatewayLink.aspx?alId=12215 false false%>

    The Aisin Group is unveiling its see-through mirror monitor to the general public for the first time at ITS World Congress Detroit. The mirror monitor provides drivers with visibility into traditional blind spots. The system enables drivers to see adjacent vehicles and pedestrians more clearly, while driving or reverse parking. The system works by combining video feed from cameras inside and outside the vehicle, showing areas normally blocked on the rear-view mirror by pillars or back seats. A protot

    Portuguese company Sernis will use Intertraffic Amsterdam 2014 to present B-Rail, a new concept of road safety barriers designed for any type of vehicle and developed to be ultra-resistant and withstand vehicular impacts. Sernis claims that B-Rail has an absorption power and damping shock greater than conventional guard rail solutions, due to its raw material and internal structure. In addition, the barrier has a high absorption/dissipation capacity of impact energy at higher speed than conventional gua
