    Smartcycle discriminates between cycles and vehicles, aids cycle safety
    The SmartCycle software upgrade to the entire Vantage family discriminately detects bicycles anywhere in a VIDS’ field of view while simultaneously providing “regular” detection of all other vehicles in the same unit. The separate bike only detection output enables enhanced safety for cyclists and signalised intersection efficiency - longer passage times are granted only when a bike is detected.

    Intelligent parking barrier
    The Barrier.Gate, an intelligent barrier system from Skidata, is an inexpensive solution for long-term parking facilities because it combines column and barrier in one product. Less consumption of energy and space are among its sustainable benefits. The barrier communicates via light signals of the integrated track light, while the built-in camera helps to prevent vandalism and unauthorised entry through a closing barrier.

    Sensefields’ wireless sensors simplify sensing
    Sensefields’ traffic monitoring system uses easily installed wireless sensors to determine vehicle speed and, in urban situations, also for categorisation. Information from the sensor is sent in real time to the data processing station to determine the capacity (vehicles per hour) in each lane, average speed, speed distribution, average vehicle length, length distribution, density, average headway between vehicles and occupancy (%).

    ISS launches advanced radar based traffic sensor
    Image Sensing Systems (ISS) will use Intertraffic Amsterdam 2014 to unveil the new non-intrusive, radar-based, Autoscope RTMS Sx-300, an advanced sensor for the detection and measurement of traffic on roadways. All-weather accurate and virtually maintenance-free, with long-term worry-free reliability, the company says the Sx-300 gives the best lane detection capabilities, providing the ability to detect up to 12 lanes of traffic simultaneously. Its all-in-one-concept combines a high-resolution radar and a v
