7695 Icoms Detections will use Intertraffic Amsterdam to launch the ITVP2, a new radar that simulates two virtual loops for both approaching and stop-line detection. The company says this major new development brings together two traffic applications in one product that operates under all weather conditions: presence and movement of motorcycles and vehicles in a targeted area. Icoms says the device provides accuracy above 97% and is simple to install: there is no software needed to set up the two detector zones.

    The German AKTIV project is researching several cooperative driving applications for use in work zones. PTV's Michael Ortgiese details progress. The steep increases in traffic volumes predicted back in the early 1990s have unfortunately been proven to be more than accurate. In Germany, the AKTIV project continues to look into cooperative technologies' potential to reduce the impact of those increased traffic volumes and keep traffic moving despite limitations in infrastructure capacity.
