Since 2012, the first and only smart light bar has provided real-time video coverage across seven lanes, delivering continuous monitoring without additional roadside infrastructure. Equipped with automatic licence plate recognition (ALPR) and 360-degree video, it ensures complete situational awareness.

Ekin Patrol G2 extends this capability as a mobile traffic unit, covering seven lanes while capturing high-resolution data on vehicle flow, speed and parking activity. It provides real-time alerts for traffic violations, congestion and hotlist detections. Designed as a fully self-contained system, it operates without using trunk space, making it highly efficient for dynamic deployment.

All units communicate seamlessly within a single ecosystem, ensuring 100% coverage through the Maestro backend platform. This integration allows for real-time data sharing, predictive insights, and coordinated traffic and parking management. The system acts as a serious force multiplier, helping law enforcement and city officials do more with less by automating tasks and optimising resources.
