Peek introduces GreenWave for 2070 controllers

Peek is introducing GreenWave for 2070 controllers. The new Linux-based firmware designed for NTCIP traffic signal controllers, is on display at the company's booth at ITS America 2016. GreenWave empowers users to create central systems, closed-loop systems, or simple bit relays to communicate I/O from one intersection to the next.

101 Peek Traffic is introducing GreenWave for 2070 controllers. The new Linux-based firmware designed for NTCIP traffic signal controllers, is on display at the company's booth at ITS America 2016.

GreenWave empowers users to create central systems, closed-loop systems, or simple bit relays to communicate I/O from one intersection to the next.

The new firmware (formerly known as NWS Voyage) is compatible with Peek's Spinnaker advanced traffic management system (ATMS), and a variety of other NTCIP compliant central software systems. The software also operates on a variety of 2070 L and NEMA controller brands including 1763 Econolite, 772 McCain, 189 Siemens, 5643 Naztec, 7316 Intelight and more.

Gustavo de la Pena, sales director at Peek, said: "The expanded capabilities of GreenWave allow agencies to add the most complex transit signal priority function available in the market.

“In addition, GreenWave's new offset correction algorithm virtually eliminates times when the controller goes free and enables entire corridors to get into step after a pattern change much more quickly.

"Now, when a pattern change is commanded for a corridor, all intersections immediately implement the new pattern. With GreenWave, all intersections get in sync within two cycles or less,” added de la Pena.

Light Rail support is planned to be added to GreenWave TSP function later in 2016, including advance detection, calculation of travel time to intersection, early green and green extensions, and display of all the train signals.

    Seattle Department of Transportation has chosen the Peel Traffic ATC-1000 controller for a King County Metro Rapid Ride corridor project. Rapid Ride is Seattle’s bus system; buses send signals to traffic lights so green lights stay green longer, or red lights switch to green faster. The systems have many advanced features including transit signal priority to help synchronise traffic lights with an approaching Rapid Ride bus, enabling the traffic signal controller to provide an effective transit priority re

Autoscope RVP2 with software version 10.5.0 will enable Pueblo to achieve the upgrade cost effectively by eliminating the need to replace current cameras, as well as using one RVP2 to operate two cameras. The City has ordered 39 RVP2 systems to be installed this year. The City of Pueblo was an early adopter of video detection technol
