657 Kistler is using its booth to highlight to the American market a bespoke weigh-in-motion (WIM) data logger designed to interface with Lineas WIM sensors. The company says this combination allows users to monitor traffic in real time and gather key vehicle data including weight and imbalance, axle loads and spacing, speed and driving behaviour. 

According to Kistler the key is enhanced conditioning and processing of the signal from the Lineas WIM sensor to achieve higher weighing accuracy across the vehicle speed range while maximising reliability.
It says the data logger is easily integrated into an end-user’s system and allows customised solutions to suit individual requirements.

The WIM Data Logger is available in four or eight channel configuration and there are various digital inputs and outputs to interface peripheral devices including loop cards, light curtains, traffic signals, camera triggers and barriers.

A web interface enables end users to set up and calibrate the WIM site and the data logger is capable of OIML certified operation. Vehicle data is stored locally and can be accessed through the web interface or retrieved in real time by the control unit.

    Turkish company Vendeka is looking to expand its operations internationally after completing what it describes as the first passive RFID-based tolling project in Europe. The company installed the system on the Bosphorus Bridge, which links Europe and Asia. Previously, tolling was achieved by a card-based system, but traffic jams were caused by drivers stopping to place their cards in the readers. This has been replaced by Vendeka’s passive RFID system. A major advantage, says Vendeka, is that a passive RFID

The first generation of DSRC-based OBUs launched to market in Japan back in 2001, where around 40 million are now in use. The technology is especially relevant in Panasonic’s home country, as all motorways are private and congestion is a common problem. Value-added services such as local parking information can also be accessed.
