RSS811 Federal Signal Technologies (FSTech) will come to the ITS America Annual Meeting with a focus on tolling interoperability. As the company points out, it has always been a proponent of providing multi-protocol systems and solutions for open road tolling. These systems allow agencies and integrators to leverage legacy tag populations while providing a forward look towards adoption of new technology platforms as they arrive. With the development and release of 495 Sirit IDentity readers, 37 PIPS Technology Cameras, 36 Idris Lane Systems and 2073 VESystems back office solutions; FSTech has become a leader in an industry with an eye on interoperability.

During the recent technology showcase conducted in North Carolina with other industry vendors, FSTech divisions Sirit and PIPS demonstrated new multi-protocol reader and transponder technology and high-speed automatic licence plate recognition (ALPR) cameras. The company says the success of these tests shows the industry that interoperability is no longer just a possibility; with the technology available today it can provide proven solutions that provide a path to interoperability in open road tolling.

    Q-Free’s Marco Sinnema looks at how the commoditisation of high-quality vision-based solutions is widening their application. Machine vision technology’s entry into the ITS/traffic management sector has followed a classic top-down path. This is unsurprising given the extremely demanding performance criteria which are the standard in its market of origin, manufacturing processing. Very high image qualities combined with frame rates often in the hundreds per second range resulted in vision systems with capabi

    Growth in urban areas continues to stress roadway networks across the country. Local, state and federal transportation authorities turn to ITS systems to solve these problems and more efficiently utilize their current roadway. By deploying adaptive signal control systems, cities remove choke points and adjust in real time to varying traffic patterns, particularly during special events or accidents. Ultimately, this reduces vehicle emissions, motorist fuel consumption, and travel times, while improving quali
