148 Wavetronix is adopting a low-key presence at this year’s ITS World Congress in Vienna, and will be appearing in the 560 ITS America pavilion. The company’s message, ‘Rise Above the Road,’ encourages transportation professionals to move away from loops and embrace SmartSensor HD as an accurate alternative. But the secondary message is a declaration that SmartSensor HD is now an active part of European ITS programmes, with significant deployments in Denmark, France, Russia, and the United Kingdom.
