73 Iteris participates at Intertraffic Amsterdam 2014 following an exciting year for the company with the release of several new detection capabilities and additional ITS products. During the event, Iteris says it will be focusing on the differentiators of its Vantage P10 product and how this highly compact detection camera is perfectly suited for the international market and adaptive control systems. As the company points out, it has developed advanced algorithms to provide optimal vehicle detection and counting at the stop bar which are used in all Iteris video detection systems.

With the inclusion of its SmartCycle algorithms within the P10 product, Iteris says it now has the ability to differentiate bicycles from vehicles. With the addition of new bicycle detection zones, a special output to the traffic controller can be provided to extend green times at signalised intersections, allowing cyclists to traverse the intersection safely by permitting additional time for them to cross.

In addition to its video detection expertise, Iteris says it is gaining momentum with a field-proven travel time system that collects and analyses MAC address data from Bluetooth or Wi-Fi enabled devices. The Vantage Velocity Travel Time System provides the most cost-effective means to gather travel time and origin-destination data, critical Measure-of-Effectiveness (MOE) for many agencies around the globe. By using field units deployed within existing traffic cabinets, and a unique data gathering technique that allows each field unit to capture 90% of passing devices, Iteris says an agency can quickly collect and use accurate travel time data for a myriad of applications.

    Toyota is trialling a new driver information system which, if successful, could start to appear in Japanese cities around 2015. Trials started in March this year. The Next Generation Vehicle Infrastructure Co-operation Service consists of sensors mounted on city streets that communicate with vehicles by radio. Vehicles would require an onboard unit to receive the data. The information is particularly designed to help drivers in crowded urban streets whose visibility is obscured by large vehicles such as

    Turkish company Vendeka is looking to expand its operations internationally after completing what it describes as the first passive RFID-based tolling project in Europe. The company installed the system on the Bosphorus Bridge, which links Europe and Asia. Previously, tolling was achieved by a card-based system, but traffic jams were caused by drivers stopping to place their cards in the readers. This has been replaced by Vendeka’s passive RFID system. A major advantage, says Vendeka, is that a passive RFID

If the driver’s breath contains alcohol, the engine ignition system will not work. (Residual amounts of alcohol, such as those found in some mouthwashes, are allowable.) It has been mandatory for Alcolock to be fitted to public vehicles in Sweden such
