521 CA Traffic will unveil several new innovations at Intertraffic 2016 in the areas of cycle detection, a state of the art Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) system and a new comprehensive journey time and car park management solution.

CA Traffic’s latest Black Cat Cycle Radar and Black Cat Classifier with integrated cycle detection set a new benchmark in cycle detection and safety. The Black Cat Radar has been enhanced to improve both slow speed operation and the detection of multiple objects travelling in the same direction, enabling the Black Cat Cycle Radar to accurately count bicycles even when travelling in groups.

By combining its Black Cat and EVO range of intelligent ANPR cameras, CA Traffic’s innovative new WIM system provides comprehensive vehicle-by-vehicle data with pre-selection for overweight vehicles. Moreover, the system provides photographic evidence with embedded Metadata (including registration number) of the violation for instantaneous transmission to enforcement agency representatives for interception and also simultaneously to the central management system.

CA Traffic says all its products can be easily integrated into client management systems but are also fully supported by in-house back office systems; VDA-Pro R2 and Catalyst. These received key enhancements during 2015 with the addition of VMS management, O&D Surveys and journey time modules allowing maximum flexibility of data management and reporting.

Meanwhile, CA Traffic will also unveil a new Journey Time and Car Park Management solution that utilises the EVO range of ANPR cameras and Cortex Instation system which is currently operational across the UK’s Tyne & Wear region with more than 150 Evo8 Cameras providing real-time data. Furthermore, CA’s latest ANPR Camera, the EvoX has many new features and capabilities and will also be on show.

    Two important safety innovations will be among a range of products and systems on the Iteris stand at Intertraffic Amsterdam. The company developed the first video-based bicycle detection system, SmartCycle, that it claims provides the unique capability of distinguishing bicycles from other vehicles on the road. Through the use of an Iteris enhanced algorithm, SmartCycle has the capability of making streets safer by extending green times for cyclists when the system knows they are present.

    Q-Free’s Andrew Lees looks at regional characteristics and technology trends in the global Weigh-In-Motion market. The principles of Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) are well established. Data derived from vehicles passing over in-ground sensors can be interpreted for vehicle classification (axle counts and spacing) and positive identification (especially when linked to image capture) applications as well as to derive individual axle and gross vehicle weight (GVW).
