Lufft exhibit ‘all season’ sensors

Lufft, known globally for its Marwis road weather sensor, is featuring an array sensors for mobile or stationary road weather information systems (RWIS) and automated weather observation sensors (AWOS). They consist of, amongst others, professional all-in-one weather sensors such as the WS800, road sensors, including the IRS31PRO-UMB, as well as visibility sensors, like the VS2k and VS20k. These technologies warn against slipperiness, imminent black ice, aquaplaning, precipitation, fog and other kinds of tr

They consist of, amongst others, professional all-in-one weather sensors such as the WS800, road sensors, including the IRS31PRO-UMB, as well as visibility sensors, like the VS2k and VS20k. These technologies warn against slipperiness, imminent black ice, aquaplaning, precipitation, fog and other kinds of traffic dangers.

The company points to the real-world benefits of its sensor range: not only is traffic safety significantly improved, but also weatherrelated accident evidence is recorded. Moreover, Lufft’s sensors help to save on de-icing chemicals and to protect the environment.

    First promised in 2012, light-absorbing glow-in-the-dark road markings have finally made an appearance on a 500 metre stretch of the N329 road in the Netherlands. Developed by artist Daan Roosegarde and Dutch civil engineering firm Heijmans, the markings use a photo-luminescent powder integrated into the road paint, absorbing light during the day and glowing for up to eight hours in the dark. Part of Roosegarde’s vision included weather markings that become visible at certain temperatures, such as a s
