2215 Axis Communications’ approach to participation at the ITS America Annual Meeting is based on a fundamental truth: traffic management is impossible without constant and reliable information solutions. The company will demonstrate at Pittsburgh how innovative traffic monitoring technology allows it to offer intelligent IP video solutions to the ever-changing road environment that drivers experience on a daily basis.

For instance, Axis will be highlighting its adaptive video platform that allows specialised video analytic companies to develop applications that cater to their specific needs, while at the same time running directly on the camera to minimise the costs of storage and processing power. Functions of some of Axis’ highly versatile traffic products include licence plate recognition, high-quality live monitoring, vehicle counting, incident detection, vehicle classification and much more.

A case in point is the AXIS Q6000-E which provides large area coverage with fantastic 1080p resolution quality that, especially when combined with proficient 36x zoom capabilities, provides mission-critical incident management both day and night.

As the number of road users inevitably increases, Axis says users can count on the company to guide them through any challenges the road presents and assist in steering clear of traffic troubles.
