A relative newcomer to the ITS space, 8123 Intellipower is hoping to attract conference attendees to its booth on the showroom floor to show them its industrial-level power supply and conversion units. According to Jim Moreland, a sales engineer, the company attended 6456 ITS World Congress in Detroit last year and was encouraged by the sales leads that came in. Immediately after, the company signed up as an exhibitor for Pittsburgh and is looking to continue that sales momentum at this year’s show.

“This is a new industry for us,” Moreland said. “We’ve had a lot of success in other industries, particularly military and defense. Our power supply products are battle-tested and are a good fit for transportation applications.”

Intellipower has a portfolio of thousands of power products. Specifically, Intellipower is touting its new K2 Energy lithium-phosphate batteries that are traditionally deployed in weapons. Coming in at a third of the weight of traditional lead-acid batteries, K2 Energy provides two to three times the power, the smaller form factor making it particularly suited for ITS configurations.

    A new traffic management solution is attempting to bridge the gap in information available on freeways and arterial roadways. Andrew Bardin Williams reports. Agencies responsible for national networks of roads around the world have the ability to measure, analyse and disseminate accurate travel information to drivers. Millions of dollars go into data collection infrastructure to collect traffic congestion and travel time information on major freeways or highways. For example, a driver on the I-210 in the Lo

    As vehicle manufacturers, regulators and governments around the world seek solutions to prevent another emissions cheating scandal similar to the Volkswagen case, a major vehicle emissions inspection company has compiled and analysed on-road emissions data indicating that emissions violations of vehicles under real-world driving conditions may well go far beyond VW diesels. Opus Inspection says a two-pronged approach that continuously monitors real-world emissions is the only effective remedy. Lothar Ge
