Redflex launches all-in-one traffic enforcement, variable speed detection/enforcement

Intertraffic Amsterdam 2016 sees the launch of Redflex Traffic Systems’ newest traffic enforcement solution. The company claims the system uses the most advanced image technology the enforcement market has seen to deliver detection rates up to five times higher than competitor products, from within a single housing. Redflex says the system can deliver accurate enforcement of red light; speed; mobile phone use; bus lanes; average speed; close following, ANPR; gridlock and wrong-way driving, to name a few.

Intertraffic Amsterdam 2016 sees the launch of 112 Redflex Traffic Systems’ newest traffic enforcement solution. The company claims the system uses the most advanced image technology the enforcement market has seen to deliver detection rates up to five times higher than competitor products, from within a single housing. Redflex says the system can deliver accurate enforcement of red light; speed; mobile phone use; bus lanes; average speed; close following, ANPR; gridlock and wrong-way driving, to name a few.

“This product brings together all our learning and customer feedback from over the years,” says Andrew McKindlay, Group Head of Strategy and Business Development for Redflex Traffic Systems. “By incorporating this, we have created a product that is going to change the market and lower the cost of ownership for customers.”

Redflex is also demonstrating its solution for the intelligent monitoring of variable speed limits on motorways to keep traffic flowing during busy periods. The system utilises a gantry- or sign-mounted variant of Redflexspeed radar, which uses non-intrusive dual radar for the detection of speed offences in all weather conditions, with lane identification, vehicle position and positive vehicle identification.

A pole-mounted sign verification system located in advance of the motorway variable message signs monitors changes to the enforceable speed limit displayed and alerts the camera system to set new enforcing speed limit thresholds or barred lane enforcement.

Also on display will be Redflex’s mobile speed enforcement system, Redflexradarcam, which uses dual radar detection to provide accurate speed detection in all conditions, with lane identification, vehicle position and identification across up to six lanes of traffic simultaneously.

    Radar reinforces detection efficiency
    Radar can have distinct advantages in some transport-related situations as Colin Sowman found out during a visit to Navtech Radar. Despite tremendous advances in machine vision techniques, the accuracy and reliability of camera-based detection systems suffer during periods of poor visibility where other technologies may offer an alternative. Radar is one such technology. It too has seen significant development in recent years and according to Navtech Radar, the technology can often fulfil detection and moni

    Enforcement comes in many guises
    Colin Sowman looks at some enforcement case studies from around the world. It is a sad fact of life that unenforced laws are not adhered to by a sometimes sizable proportion of the public and once enforcement is seen to be lacking, some drivers can take this to extremes and authorities must decide how to regain control.

    Machine vision offers new solutions to old problems
    The transportation sector is set to benefit from a far wider range of machine vision technology. While machine vision techniques have been applied to traffic management applications for some years, in some areas there can still be a shortage of knowledge about what the technology can offer transportation professionals. The image processing and interpretation functions of machine vision enables control room staff to be immediately alerted to occurrences requiring attention which, in turn, enables each person
