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.

    March 9, 2016
    Researchers Yuting Yang, Camillo Taylor and Daniel Lee have developed a system to turn surveillance cameras into traffic counters. Traffic information can be collected from existing inexpensive roadside cameras but extracting it often entails manual work or costly commercial software. Against this background the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission (DVRPC) was looking for an efficient and user-friendly solution to extract traffic information from videos captured from road intersections.

    Jason Barnes looks at Daimler’s Intelligent Drive programme to consider how machine vision has advanced the state of the art of vision-based in-vehicle systems. Traditionally, radar was the in-vehicle Driver Assistance System (DAS) technology of choice, particularly for applications such as adaptive cruise control and pre-crash warning generation. Although vision-based technology has made greater inroads more recently, it is not a case of ‘one sensor wins’. Radar and vision are complementary and redundancy

    July 22, 2020

    Hikvision has added to its DeepinView camera line with what it calls the Dedicated subseries.

    The company says this loads a batch of artificial intelligence-powered deep learning algorithms into each unit, which are of use in two distinct categories.

    The first is vehicle analysis, where cameras combine automatic number plate recognition with vehicle attribute recognition - including make, colour and direction of movement. 

    Typical installations would be on city streets and at the entrances of car parks and buildings.
