Hikob presents Wise Cow sensor node

French company Hikob will be presenting the Wise Cow device, a new generation of wireless magneto resistive sensor node. It can be placed between the road pavement in a few minutes and communicates real-time information on vehicle detection and flows. The device can be configured in a dynamic or in a static detection mode for traffic or parking applications. It can also measure the road surface temperatures which is useful in the winter service decision-making process.

    Marwis mobile weather sensor aids road weather forecasting
    Appearing at the 2015 ITS World Congress will be another high point in 2015 for German measurement technology specialist G. Lufft. The company has developed Marwis, a mobile sensor detecting road weather data such as the surface temperature, water film height, ice percentages, or friction from a moving vehicle. As a result, the device generates measurement rates of up to 100 measurements per second and transfers the values via Bluetooth in real time.
