US-based Houston Radar, a leading supplier of Doppler and FMCW radars for the traffic industry with customers in over 50 countries, is showcasing three major product innovations – SpeedLane Pro, Tetryon traffic cloud server, Armadillo Tracker and the Armadillo Crossfire.

Houston Radar SpeedLane Pro is an industry-leading true dual-beam, ultra-low power side-fire radar. It is designed to accurately detect lane, speed, and class of individual vehicles and compute per lane volume, occupancy, gap, average speed, 85th percentile and headway parameters in up to 16 lanes on the road in all weather conditions. The SpeedLane won the 2016 Intertraffic Award in the Traffic Management Category.

The product is complemented by Houston Radar’s Tetryon traffic server; a customisable cloud server used to aggregate data from multiple SpeedLane Pro and Armadillo units in one central location. The products are designed to seamlessly integrate out of the box to enable rapid deployment of customers’ traffic data on the web.

The Armadillo Tracker, a highly portable, fully integrated multi-lane bi-directional traffic statistics gathering device, is a leading non-intrusive collector used around the world that is designed to replace road tubes. It is also the smallest and most convenient radar-based stats collection box. The device collects individual time-stamped vehicle counts, speeds and class per direction in up to two adjacent lanes, making it a perfect fit for traffic monitoring and speed study applications.

    Xerox’s Passenger Detection System has been trialled in California and compared with the state’s team of human counters giving some interesting results, as Colin Sowman discovers. Like others adopting high-occupancy and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes for congestion management, Caltrans has faced challenges with compliance in what has been effectively an ‘honour system’ with drivers trusted to set their tags correctly or comply with the multi-passenger requirement.

    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni
