Faster assessment of road markings from RMS

Drop by the stand of Reflective Measurement Systems (RMS) to see its new RetroTek-M mobile dual-line system which at traffic speed can simultaneously measures the nighttime retroreflective properties of road markings (lines) and of raised pavement markers (studs) on both sides of the traffic lane. According to the company its dual-line mobile retroreflectometers, which meet EN 1436, are twice as efficient as single-line side mounted systems and have the repeatable accuracy of hand-held units.

Drop by the stand of 8387 Reflective Measurement Systems (RMS) to see its new RetroTek-M mobile dual-line system which at traffic speed can simultaneously measures the nighttime retroreflective properties of road markings (lines) and of raised pavement markers (studs) on both sides of the traffic lane.

According to the company its dual-line mobile retroreflectometers, which meet EN 1436, are twice as efficient as single-line side mounted systems and have the repeatable accuracy of hand-held units.

The company will also be using Intertraffic to search for agents or distributors in parts of Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:

    Level 2 driver assistance vehicles have little problem reading fixed metal signs at the roadside - but it’s a different story with VMS in tunnels, finds Alan Dron. Following a series of hands-free driving tests in tunnels, an Australian road authority believes that car manufacturers have to up their game before vehicles have the required levels of competence to consistently perform ‘assisted driving’ tasks. The trials, in the state of Victoria late last year, tested the ability of several vehicles to stay
