148 Wavetronix comes to ITS America 2016 San Jose to showcase its SmartSensor range of nonintrusive radar detection for freeway management and intersection detection. As the company points out, it provides radar detection products designed specifically for roadway applications.

SmartSensors provide dynamic per vehicle detection delivering real-time data that traffic engineers need to keep their roads safe and efficient. Wavetronix says these products make intersection management and arterial management safe, efficient and intelligent.

All Wavetronix radar sensors are nonintrusive and provide accurate detection in various weather and lighting conditions. They require little to no maintenance which helps keep road workers out of the road and out of harm’s way. The SmartSensor product line that includes SmartSensor Matrix, SmartSensor Advance and SmartSensor HD will turn any city into a smart city.

Wavetronix says its SmartSensor Matrix corner-radar is a multi-lane traffic detector designed specifically for presence detection at the intersection stop bar. SmartSensor Advance is a forward-fire radar that improves safety and efficiency at the stopbar by providing dilemma zone protection for vehicles of all sizes and speeds, while SmartSensor HD is a side-fire radar that uses dual radar to create a speed trap resulting in accurate per vehicle speed data for arterial management.

At the company’s booth, Wavetronix will also be discussing how these products can be used for bicycle detection, signal performance measures and true presence detection.

    Citilog, a global leader in AID (automatic incident detection), will use Intertraffic Amsterdam 2014 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 of the XCam-ng is the smart traffic control

    Traffic management centres (TMC) have traditionally served to provide surveillance and responses to traffic incidents and recurring and non-recurring changes in road networks. Typically, a TMC collected field data from the roadway and transit infrastructure and provided the integration necessary for operators to see what was happening and then coordinate a response. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) guided operators on how to respond to a given situation. It eventually became impractical for TMC operat

    Although the recession had dramatically reduced traffic volumes in the past few years, the economy was on the brink of a recovery that portended well for jobs but poorly for traffic congestion. Leaders of four government agencies in Houston, Texas, got together to discuss how to collectively cope with the expected increase in vehicles on the road. "They knew they couldn't pour enough concrete to solve the problem, and they also knew the old model of working in a vacuum as standalone entities would fail," sa
