Intercomp showcases high speed WIM sensors

Intercomp Company is showcasing its strip sensor product line for High-Speed Weigh-In-Motion (HSWIM) in-road installations this year at the 2015 ITS World Congress. The sensors utilise strain gauge technology for durable, stable, and accurate data collection of vehicle weight data at a variety of speeds. Capable of ASTM 1318 Type III, or COST A(5) performance, the sensor systems provide data including the wheel weight, axle weight, gross vehicle weight (GVW), vehicle configuration and speed. This allows us

1982 Intercomp Company is showcasing its strip sensor product line for High-Speed Weigh-In-Motion (HSWIM) in-road installations this year at the 2015 ITS World Congress. The sensors utilise strain gauge technology for durable, stable, and accurate data collection of vehicle weight data at a variety of speeds.

Capable of ASTM 1318 Type III, or COST A(5) performance, the sensor systems provide data including the wheel weight, axle weight, gross vehicle weight (GVW), vehicle configuration and speed. This allows users to identify traffic patterns for planning purposes, or as a real-time detection system of vehicles with weight violations.

The sensors were developed with the flexibility to be incorporated into existing electronics, or supplied with a CPU and Windows-based API for simplified integration into user software. This means components can be integrated based on the user’s specific site requirements and current capabilities.

    Dave Marples of Technolution argues that the continuing development of tolling-specific onboard equipment is leading us up a blind alley. We should, he says, be looking to realise universal platforms with universal application. The near-future automobile contains information systems of a sophistication to rival a jet airliner of only a few years ago, yet is 'piloted' by a considerably less well-trained individual of highly variable mental and physical capacity, and operated in a hostile, unpredictable and p

The fast-growing interest in Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) has prompted the creation of a host of software systems for those wanting to become a MaaS provider or participate in MaaS offerings. Most recently, at ITS International’s MaaS Market conference, Portuguese company Brisa Innovation announced a name change to A-to-Be to reflect its increasing involvement in the MaaS sector with the lau

  • Versatile WIM and speed enforcement
    July 31, 2015
    Camea, headquartered in the Czech Republic, will use the 2015 ITS World Congress to highlight its weigh-in-motion (WIM) system that can be expanded with a certified speed measurement function, which many municipalities welcome. The company says the system can address two road safety issues – weight and speed enforcement. The bi-directional traffic mode of the system prevents vehicles from avoiding the weigh station also works well in a situation where the road is closed or vehicles are queueing in one lane
