6761 Camea, headquartered in the Czech Republic, will use the 2015 ITS World Congress to highlight its weigh-in-motion (WIM) system that can be expanded with a certified speed measurement function, which many municipalities welcome. The company says the system can address two road safety issues – weight and speed enforcement.

The bi-directional traffic mode of the system prevents vehicles from avoiding the weigh station also works well in a situation where the road is closed or vehicles are queueing in one lane.

An advanced traffic classifier, also developed by Camea, with wide-ranging traffic monitoring applications, such as vehicle counting, precise classification, gap and headway measurement, and axle counting can also be optionally added to WIM system.
