Citilog's new CamEdge expands smart sensor series

Citilog, a global leader in AID (automatic incident detection), is here at Intertraffic to introduce XCamEdge, a new innovation in the company’s XCam smart sensor series. Initially developed and designed for intersection control applications such as presence detection with XCam-p, the XCam range quickly expanded, with the XCam-ng, to smart detection for intersections with queue monitoring and anti-gridlock applications. Indeed, the latest success for the XCam-ng is the smart traffic control system in Sochi

371 Citilog, a global leader in AID (automatic incident detection), is here at Intertraffic to introduce XCamEdge, a new innovation in the company’s XCam Smart sensor series.

Initially developed and designed for intersection control applications such as presence detection with XCam-p, the XCam range quickly expanded, with the XCam-ng, to Smart detection for intersections with queue monitoring and anti-gridlock applications. Indeed, the latest success for the XCam-ng is the Smart traffic control system in Sochi for the Winter Olympics that allowed the city to cope with the massive influx of vehicle traffic during the event.

The XCamEdge will provide more processing power to the sensor and a wide dynamic range, as well as H264 encoding and HD video streaming. The device will be able to cover a wide range of applications including intersection control, traffic data collection and incident detection.

Citilog says the performance and design of the XCamEdge introduces a new paradigm for large deployments of automatic incident detection systems: ease of installation and maintenance make it an extremely cost-effective solution.

Among the top applications of the XCamEdge is the Smart solution for wrong way detection and prevention on freeway access ramps.

    Toyota is trialling a new driver information system which, if successful, could start to appear in Japanese cities around 2015. Trials started in March this year. The Next Generation Vehicle Infrastructure Co-operation Service consists of sensors mounted on city streets that communicate with vehicles by radio. Vehicles would require an onboard unit to receive the data. The information is particularly designed to help drivers in crowded urban streets whose visibility is obscured by large vehicles such as
