97 Moxa unveiled new technologies to improve network reliability for smart transportation applications at the ITS America Annual Meeting and Expo. V-On “Video Always On” is a video stream recovery technology on Moxa’s latest Ethernet switches that provides 50 ms redundancy for multicast video streams when used with Moxa’s Turbo Ring or Turbo Chain.
“It can take several seconds for the video stream to resume after a network interruption even if the network itself recovers immediately,” explains Richard Wood, product manager at Moxa Americas. “With a simple configuration setting, Moxa’s V-On technology enables the video stream to resume almost as quickly as the network itself. This helps ensure the highest level of real-time reliability for mission-critical video surveillance applications.”
The demo video of V-On in action, shown at the Moxa booth, can be viewed online at: %$Linker: 2External<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><dictionary />000oLinkExternalwww.youtube.com/watch?v=upGbhfqYXt4Watch youtube click herefalsehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=upGbhfqYXt4falsefalse%> Moxa’s WDR-3124A, a combo Wi-Fi and cellular router designed to enable extremely rugged and reliable remote access to critical vehicle and passenger data, was also featured at the Annual Meeting. Four built-in Ethernet ports consolidate IP-based communications between the various onboard devices, sensors and cameras, and the built-in cellular interface transmits critical live data while in transit. When the vehicle is back at the lot or service center, the built-in Wi-Fi interface connects directly with the control center to share all accumulated onboard data.
“The combination of communication interfaces on the WDR-3124A makes it an ideal choice for fleet operators that are incorporating smart IP-based connectivity into their existing vehicles,” notes Wood.
Econolite will use the ITS World Congress to highlight its Centracs Adaptive and Travel Time software modules. Centracs Adaptive is designed for transportation agencies seeking to significantly improve traffic mobility over pre-programmed signal timing plans. It actively reallocates and adapts signal timing to improve traffic flow, including unpredictable or unexpected traffic conditions. Centracs Travel Time module enables Centracs ATMS to subscribe to BlueToad travel time and speed data to provide both hi
More than 13,000 people from about 70 countries, including policymakers, administrators, practitioners and researchers from government, industry, and academia, are expected to gather for the US Transportation Research Board (TRB) 96th Annual Meeting. The event will be held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC, from 8-12 January and will involve more than 5,000 presentations at over 800 sessions and workshops covering all transportation modes. Approximately 130 sessions will addr
Hot on the heels of a similar plan in Los Angeles, serial entrepreneur Elon Musk has been given the green light to build underground ‘express-route’ tunnels in Las Vegas, US.
The decision by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) will allow Musk’s The Boring Company (TBC) to construct and operate a people mover for the Las Vegas Convention Center. The service, expected to cost $35-$55 million, will operate via a loop of tunnels that could carry up to 11,000 passengers per hour in autono
Organizing committees are gearing up for the next two ITS World Congress and Exhibitions, using ITS America 2013 to ensure continuity between the shows, cultivate interest and build momentum.
