1763 Econolite Group will use the 2012 ITS America Annual Meeting & Eposition to demonstrate its latest detection offerings - the Autoscope Duo (hybrid radar/video system), and RTMS - as well as featuring its Centracs ATMS and Centracs Adaptive software solutions. Indeed, there will be a celebratory air as the group continues its milestone celebration of the 100th Centracs order – achieved within three years of introduction. To be installed in Georgia, the advanced traffic management system software will be deployed as part of the city of Johns Creek’s ITS master plan that provides the vision and strategy for the future development of the city’s traffic operations.

“Centracs’ robust yet scalable architecture is a significant reason for its fast acceptance among transportation agencies of all sizes,” says Econolite senior VP of sales, Jeff Spinazze. “Centracs is designed to seamlessly expand ITS capabilities to complement agencies evolving transportation plans and budgets.”

First deployed in 2009, currently about 17,000 signalised intersections are licensed through Centracs. The system provides an integrated platform for traffic signal control, ITS field device monitoring and control, information management, graphical data display, advanced traffic algorithms, and much more.

Meanwhile, the Autoscope Duo sensor is a hybrid radar and video vehicle detection system — the first in a new generation of hybrid sensor technology. It merges the robust capabilities of radar and video detection techonologies for the highest levels of detection accuracy in all traffic, lighting, weather, and pavement conditions, with the lowest cost of ownership. The Autoscope Duo sensor provides a consistent vehicle detection solution, and inspires ITS applications of continuous data collection and traffic monitoring.

Also being highlighted is the company’s non-intrusive, radar-based RTMS (Remote Traffic Microwave Sensor) G4, an advanced sensor for the detection and measurement of traffic on roadways. It is all-weather accurate and virtually maintenance-free. As Econolite points out, best of all, RTMS is renowned for long-term, worry-free reliability.

    RuggedCom will use its appearance at the ITS America Annual Meeting to highlight a range of field hardened communications products for ITS. As the company points out, creating a reliable, citywide communication network to meet the demand for real-time information and support the growing need for mobility is no easy feat. But its solution, which will be featured on the company’s booth, can ease the pain; WiMax 4G Broadband can cost effectively extend the network and seamlessly integrate into existing infrast

    An important strategic task every company must do periodically is review products and make sure they match the goals and direction of the company. In March, Vaisala, the global weather solutions provider, concluded that three non-weather road transportation products no longer match its long term strategy, and thus sold these products to another company. Vaisala says the change will allow it to increase its already industry-leading innovations, such as the non-intrusive road weather sensors, and the Conditio

    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.
