Recent innovations in thermal imaging for traffic applications, including the 6778 Flir TrafiOne smart sensor and the Flir FC-Series AID thermal imaging camera are being featured on the Flir stand at this weeks ITS World Congress.

TrafiOne, an all-round detection sensor for traffic monitoring and dynamic traffic signal control, uses thermal imaging and wifi tracking technology to provide traffic engineers with high-resolution data on vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians at intersections and in urban environments.

It helps traffic engineers to improve traffic flows, reduce vehicle idling time, monitor congestion, enhance safety for vulnerable road users, collect data, and measure travel and delay times for different transport modes. Meanwhile, the new Flir ITS-Series AID camera is said to combine best-in-class thermal imaging technology with advanced video analytics to provide a complete solution for automatic incident detection, data collection and early fire detection.

    June 11, 2015
    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a
