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.”

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.
Imago Technologies is showcasing its new VisionCam LM which can unify different components of a line scan application in a single device.
A modern, fast Arm Dual-Cortex A15 processor with Linux processes the data from a line scan sensor with up to 8Kb pixels in monochrome or colour. With over four times higher computing power in comparison with a Dual-Cortex A9, line scan rates of up to 50 kHz with 4Kb resolution can be reached and processed.
Visitors to AGD’s stand at this year’s Intertraffic will see for themselves the firm’s most advanced FMCW intelligent radar detection system to date. AGD’s ‘318’ has been developed to detect and monitor vehicles in single lanes or highways and can track multiple vehicle targets simultaneously in both directions, providing range, speed and occupancy measurement to monitor and control traffic flow.
Finland-headquartered Noptel is highlighting its Speeder X1 and CMP52 laser distance measurement sensors, developed for traffic control and law enforcement applications.
The Speeder X1 laser radar exploits a dual laser transmitter, providing overlapping vehicle profile analysis for precise vehicle speed measurement, as well as for vehicle height and length determination. Meanwhile, the accurate and reliable CMP52 single beam laser radar is designed for a wide variety of traffic control and law enforcement
Spire Payments, which is exhibiting for the first time at CARTES this year, is highlighting its role as the sole supplier of mobile Chip & PIN payment devices for Smart TPE, Crédit Agricole’s new national mPOS project. This recently announced collaboration is intended to help bring to market a Crédit Agricole payment offering that addresses the new expectations and changing habits of merchants and consumers.
