147 Vitronic will use the ITS World Congress Detroit 2014 to showcase the next- generation of the company’s LIDAR-based traffic enforcement. The company says the new system builds on the best-in-class measurement technology of the revolutionary PoliScan product line and can be applied to a variety of enforcement scenarios, such as speed enforcement, red light enforcement, and tailgating. According to Vitronic, the new system has already proven its capabilities by outperforming competition in a recent tender in Abu Dhabi, which included a roadside test comprised of over 20 enforcement and violation scenarios across up to six lanes simultaneously.
Also on display will be the latest generation of the TollChecker flexible free-flow tolling platform. The technology can be applied on highways as well as rural roads or for road user charging in urban environments. It is also used for auditing existing or projected tolling systems.
Delegates to the ITS World Congress are also invited to a presentation by Vitronic on flexible tolling technology within the Road User Charging Session 4 on Wednesday morning, September 10th. The presentation (Session #13402) is titled“The ‘F’ Factor - Not Only Smart But Flexible Synergies Of Traffic Control And Management Systems.”
German company Covisys develops a range of high performance machine vision for many industries, including automotive, using cutting edge HTML5 technologies like WebRTC for video streaming and WebSockets for control of its smart cameras and devices.
Its CarID vehicle licence plate detection and recognition system can be used to identify vehicles accessing public car parks and to control vehicle input and output fl ow in restricted areas.
Making its ITS World Congress debut is Canadian company ACS – Alcohol Countermeasure System – with its Alcolock V3 alcohol ignition interlock The device has been around since 2008 and requires drivers to breath into the device before setting off on a journey.

It has been mandatory for Alcolock to be fitted to public vehicles in Sweden such
Camera manufacturer Basler is expanding its portfolio of cameras for intelligent traffic systems.
The new Basler dart series has been designed to meet the need for basic, stripped-down cameras for simple traffic applications, such as access control or in-vehicle ALPR solutions.
For more demanding systems, Basler has equipped two ace GigE and two ace USB 3.0 models, as well as its IP cameras, with the powerful Sony IMX174 sensor. With the python 5000 sensor from ON Semiconductor, Basler has
Flir has teamed up with Traficon to develop automatic detection for cyclists using thermal imaging. The two companies have jointly developed a thermal video solution that meets all federal and state guidelines for tracking cyclists throughout the approach to an intersection.
