559 AGD Systems will be showcasing its range of intelligent radar detection systems at Intertraffic Amsterdam. New for 2016 is the launch of the company’s most sophisticated intelligent radar yet. The ‘350’ measures not only the speed and range of vehicles but also captures their angle from the radar. This means that road authorities can see vehicles’ complete approach to junctions and can also see exactly what is happening throughout the junction in real time.

AGD says this makes its latest radar ideal for hosting red light and yellow box enforcement systems. The ‘350’ can be positioned either in front of or behind an intersection stop-line to ensure the radar covers a precise trigger point at the intersection. This provides authorities with comprehensive information and good flexibility of deployment within existing infrastructure.

The company says that with over two decades of experience designing and developing intelligent radar detection technology, it has the expertise and technical know-how to accurately monitor and measure traffic flows for speed enforcement, red light and yellow box enforcement and road data gathering.

Plans are in place to transform the detection market further by introducing more dynamic traffic data input with vehicle speeds to controllers to deliver enhanced junction efficiency.

    UK manufacturer AGD Systems has upgraded its 318 Traffic Control Radar to detect stationary and queuing traffic. The company says the solution provides a cost-effective alternative for local authorities using in-ground detection from their road networks. According to AGD, the pole-mounted solution provides virtual loop detection with speed discrimination and can emulate two inductive loops to a range of 150m or provide lane-specific detection up to 40m for a range of applications.

    Single-camera bi-directional speed enforcement can reduce the cost of enforcing speeding on two-way roads without repositioning the camera. Truvelo has received UK type-approval for a simultaneous bi-directional (SBD) enforcement camera, the D-Cam P digital, which can capture speeding motorist both those travelling towards and away from the camera. It is also in the process of carrying out the first installations of the D-Cam P in the UK.
