The advantage over inductive loop technology is the absence of the need for roadworks for installation. The sensor also provides warning of whether vehicles fail to start as expected, because of congestion, obstruction, driver inattention and so on. At this year’s s
Save CAP airbag is a proof of concept of a windscreen airbag and automatic braking system, designed to protect cyclists and pedestrians in a collision with a vehicle.
Czech company Camea will use the ITS World Congress to present its UnicamWIM, high speed weigh-in-motion system. A complete turnkey solution for variety of weigh-in-motion applications, from high quality traffic reports and statistics to sophisticated enforcement systems, the system enables pre-selection of potentially overloaded vehicles which can then be sent for precise weighing without having any impact on a traffic flow. Camea points out that the system, which has been type-approved for use in the Czec
