79 Jenoptik’s Traffic Solutions Division will use the ITS World Congress Melbourne to present a range of traffic enforcement systems which are active in Australia and around the world: the company aims to demonstrate how it is improving roads, journeys and communities with 30,000 cameras operational in over 80 countries and with 480 staff working on traffic solutions and more than 50 million plates read every day.

Jenoptik will present its latest solution for red light enforcement - the TraffiStar SR390, a super non-invasive system with a tracking radar sensor and optical red light recognition. The various applications for Vector automatic number plate recognition cameras will also be exhibited, including point to point enforcement, road work zone enforcement, wanted vehicle tracking, bus lane enforcement, travel time and origin destination surveys.

Working as stand-alone units or as part of a wider ANPR network, Vector provides 24/7 monitoring capability, with each camera capable of capturing thousands of plate reads every day. Combined with powerful back office analysis software, wanted vehicles can be located fast or criminal activity identified through analysis of driving patterns.

As Jenoptik points out, these technologies and services are proven life savers; researchers from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) concluded that red light camera programs in 79 large US cities saved nearly 1,300 lives through 2014, while a 2014 report by the Norwegian Institute of Transport Economics found that automatic section speed control reduces the number of people killed or seriously injured by half and this effect continues for several kilometres after the speed control zone.

    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

  • ITS homes in on cycling safety
    April 9, 2014
    A new generation of ITS equipment is helping road authorities get to grips with cycle safety – and not a moment too soon as Colin Sowman discovers. Cyclists - remember them? Apparently not. At least not according to the OECD 2013 report Cycling, Health and Safety which contains the statement: ‘Cyclists are often forgotten in the design of the road traffic system’. Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou
