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 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.

    Wrong-way warning systems and advanced queue detection can help to reduce human error. They can also cut road accidents – and therefore road deaths, says Clearview Intelligence Where were nearly 1,800 deaths on the UK’s roads in 2018 – an average of five people dying each day. The largest single cause of serious injury is crashes at junctions (accounting for 33% of incidents), while the largest single cause of death was run-off road crashes (30%) “With vehicles increasingly being designed with saf

    Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) has implemented digital variable speed limit signs over a thirty-mile stretch of Interstate 84 between Baker City and La Grande, replacing the standard speed signs in that area. The new signs will use traffic, road, weather and visibility sensors to lower the legal speed limit when ice, snow, fog or a wreck ahead requires drivers to slow down. Along with identifying the current legal speed limit, the digital displays can also show the reason for a reduced speed,
