7311 Lumenera is here at the ITS America Annual Meeting to present high performance cameras with excellent image quality, amazing low-light performance, high dynamic range and high resolution needed for transportation applications. With thousands of cameras deployed worldwide, Lumenera’s says its equipment is ideal for tolling, red light/speed enforcement and automated parking. Off-the-shelf and custom imaging solutions with USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and GigE options are offered.

On display is Lumenera’s yet-to-be-released Lt16059H camera which is equipped with a 16 MP ON Semiconductor (Truesense) KAI-16070 CCD image sensor with a 7.4 μm pixel size that can achieve a frame rate of 11 fps at full resolution.

This high-performance USB 3.0 camera is optimal for many transportation applications and its global electronic shutter captures high-quality, high-speed images with virtually zero image blur. Additionally, Lumenera points out that the unit’s award-winning “Dual- Gain High Dynamic Range” (HDR) implementation is a rare feature that outputs the same high-resolution frame processed through two different gain amplifiers. The Lt16059H can be customised to suit OEM designs. “The Lt16059H camera was designed with ITS specifically in mind,” says Eric Ramsden, Lumenera product manager.

“Our design using the KAI- 16070 sensor produces the best results one can expect out of a camera designed with this sensor. Lumenera excels at designing robust cameras that provide speed, low noise, excellent tap matching and reliable USB 3.0 which are all critical elements for ITS deployments.

The recent announcement of our industry-leading four-year warranty for all of our cameras gives our customers the confidence that our solution is designed to last.”

    Transportation applications move to machine vision’s mainstream
    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a

    Sony’s Arnaud Destruels explains the benefits of CMOS sensors for ITS applications. In the transport sector roadside, trackside and platform cameras were devices for viewing and assessing a situation while individual sensors did all the clever stuff like traffic counting, speed calculation, queue lengths, signal status and so on. Well, not any more.
