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.
Ariel Gold, the ITS Joint Program Office's data program manager will host a webinar on the 25 January 2018 to discuss the preliminary data from the Wyoming Pilot site available for free via the ITS Public Data Hub. The improved accessibility of the data aims to encourage the transportation industry to discover new and innovative ways to make roadways safer and more efficient. These data sets include Basic Safety Messages (BSMs) and Traveller Information Messages. It is being generated before the full
Sensys Networks launched a new version of its Vehicle Detection System in Detroit, improving the solution’s wireless range and coverage, extending battery life and enhancing security features. VDS 2.0 hardware upgrades include an enhanced flex repeater, access point controller card, grind resistant sensor and vehicle identification and matching system. Sensys Networks is also touting its partnership with Acyclica to combine travel time information and vehicle volume data in a single system. The joint soluti
Intelligent Security Systems, a new exhibitor at Intertraffic, is featuring three key innovations on its stand: an under-vehicle surveillance system, an all-in-one speed and ANPR camera and an IP based camera designed for licence plate recognition. SecurOS Flatmus, the under-vehicle surveillance system, comprises of a fish-eye camera mounted in a plate which in turn is set into the roadway (possibly in a speed hump) on the approach to a gated entrance. As the vehicle approaches, ANPR detects the vehicle
The I_HeERO project has organised a workshop, Making eCall Happen, which will address the challenges and opportunities that need to be met to ensure successful introduction of eCall in the different Member States. It will also offer insights into how commercial companies can leverage maximum benefit from this introduction.
