Kapsch will be highlighting its V2X Application

Expanding its range of offerings from the highway into the city, at this year’s ITS World Congress in Bordeaux 81 Kapsch will show how cutting-edge real-time smart parking applications, smart data and advanced analytics can answer not only mobility issues but can encourage the economic and environmental vitality of a city.

To respond to the rising demand for connectivity and better traffic management, Kapsch will also highlight its V2X application and its integrated traffic management solutions. Recently the company successfully demonstrated so called Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) where a vehicle using Kapsch 5.9 V2X technology can autonomously detect and prevent an intersection collision with pedestrian. A further successful project with Kapsch V2X technology was the test for truck platooning with RelCommH research project in Sweden.

To respond to traffic incidents and emergency situations more effectively, Kapsch has developed the traffic management iPad app that aids on-road emergency personnel in responding to and clearing incidents along roadways.

As the provider of high performance toll collection solutions business around the globe, Kapsch will also showcase its innovation in multi-lane free-flow traffic with its next-generation classification system that can detect, track, trigger, and classify vehicles in real time and in all traffic conditions and weather environments with no embedded roadway sensors.

    A series of 'driver clinics' is under way across five states, as vehicle manufacturers and the US Government pin their hopes on connected vehicles becoming the next big advance in road safety. Pete Goldin reports. What would a car say if it could talk? Its first words might be: "Here I am". Many vehicles are communicating that very message to each other right now. Admittedly, this is in controlled environments of US Department of Transportation (USDoT) tests, but within the next few years 'connected vehicle

    Traffic management centres (TMC) have traditionally served to provide surveillance and responses to traffic incidents and recurring and non-recurring changes in road networks. Typically, a TMC collected field data from the roadway and transit infrastructure and provided the integration necessary for operators to see what was happening and then coordinate a response. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) guided operators on how to respond to a given situation. It eventually became impractical for TMC operat

  • ITS homes in on cycling safety

    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
