Italian company 7669 Intertraff is here at ITS America 2016 San Jose to present a radically new mobile speed enforcement camera, the D-cop Mobile, to the US market and also to find a reliable distributor for the product in the US. The device, which combines a compact, tripod-mounted speed camera with multi-lane radar is claimed to be a first.

“Tripod-mounted systems have been popular with police forces around the world for many years but they have either been limited to one lane for enforcement, or multilane versions are extremely bulky with trailing cables and hefty external battery packs,” said Intertraff’s Toni Marzo. “Breaking new ground with a truly compact device which allows for accurate speed monitoring across up to four lanes of traffic, our Intertraff Mobile Speed camera is the lightest on the market when it comes to multiple lane monitoring, weighing in at just 4 kg.”

CNC machined from a solid aluminium alloy and satin anodised in an array of colours to prevent scratching, the design is enhanced by wireless operation. With an internal battery providing 12 hours of operation and extended temperature capability for harsh environments, D-cop mobile makes for an attractive, robust and simple to use device.

Set-up on site takes just a few minutes and the device features an ingenious magnetically attached side door that provides quick and easy access to lens adjustment, should that be required. Transportation from site to site could not be simpler as everything - camera, flash and tripod - fits into one protective case.

    Colin Sowman talks to Terry Bergan of International Road Dynamics about the latest uses of weigh-in-motion systems. Raising allowable truck weight limits improve transport efficiency but leaves an ever-increasing number of bridges vulnerable to being overloaded and damaged by vehicles heavier, and in some cases far heavier, than they were designed to carry. The simplistic solution is to impose weight restrictions and erect appropriate signs - but this could have severe knock-on effect on trucking operations

    In Sweden, marketing company DDB Stockholm employed a mock speed camera as part of a promotional campaign for automotive manufacturer Volkswagen. The result was worldwide online interest and promotion of the debate over excessive speed to the national level. A developing trend in traffic management policy is to look at how to induce road users to modify their behaviour by incentivising change rather than forcing it through the application of penalties. There have been several studies conducted into this; an

    October 25, 2018
    Kowa has released a new lens series for 12MP cameras with a 1.1” chip size and a pixel size of 3.45µm. The new FC series is optimized to fit the micro lenses of the new Sony sensors IMX253 and IMX304, so that unwanted shading on the sensor is prevented. The lenses are also wide-band coated which effectively decreases glare and reflection and produces a high transmission from the visible to the NIR wavelength. The focal lengths 8.5mm, 16mm, 25mm and 35mm are already on sale. The focal lengths 6.5mm, 12mm a
