541 Point Grey’s range of low-cost and high-performance CCD and CMOS cameras is ideal for traffic applications.              

Its high performance Grasshopper3 camera line features 576 Sony’s Pregius global shutter CMOS sensor, available in both USB 3.0 and GigE interfaces. The fast and extremely sensitive IMX174 sensor is a 1.5-inch Exmor CMOS that offers an image resolution of 1920 x 1200 and frame rates up to 162fps. Global shutter CMOS technology allows images of fast-moving vehicles to be captured without motion distortion, a critical requirement for applications such as open road tolling or ANPR/ALPR applications. The IMX174 supports many features such as high-speed triggering and region of interest (ROI) functionality which allows users to select smaller HD 1080p or 720p image sizes that run at faster frame rates.                 

Point Grey is also showcasing its new low-cost and compact cameras such as the new board-level Chameleon3 camera line and the Blackfly CCD and CMOS cameras ranging from VGA to 5MP.

    IR’s invisible benefit for traffic surveillance and enforcement
    Advances in vision technology are enhancing traffic surveillance and enforcement applications. Variable lighting conditions have long been a stumbling block for vision technology applications in the transport sector. With applications such as ANPR, the read-rate may vary between daylight and night and can be adversely affected by glare and low sun. Madrid, Spain-based Lector Vision had these considerations in mind when designing its Traffic Eye ANPR system, which combines off-the-shelf and custom hardware
