Intertraffic sees the launch of 112 Redflex Traffic Systems’ latest solution in traffic enforcement - Halo.

The company says this innovative multi-capability system uses the most advanced image technology with up to 30 megapixel effective resolution, combined with a single wide beam high definition mapping radar and high-powered LED in-line flash.

The result, says Redflex, is that Halo can deliver detection rates up to five times higher than competitor products across six lanes of approaching or receding traffic.

Halo produces clear facial images for front detection and provides accurate enforcement of red light; speed; mobile phone use; bus lane; average speed; close following; gridlock; dedicated lane; ANPR; and wrong-way driving, all from within a single housing.

The Halo system uses multiple cameras with small-format CMOS sensors to provide a single high quality sharp image and optimum field of view for dedicated lane cameras, delivering a higher capture rate at 12 incidents per second, with effective resolution from 10 to 30 megapixels. Maximum horizontal resolution provides the best number plate capture.

Redflex says installation is quick and simple; the one-pole housing, which is built and adjusted in-factory and simply fitted on site, enables faster build and installation and requires minimal road works to install and maintain.

“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.”

In the enforcement sector, the concept of technology provider also being responsible for operations is hardly a new one. Nevertheless, it has gained significant traction over the last five or six years and has the potential to radically change the complexion of the industry according to Jenoptik Robot’s Director, Sales Ralf Schmitz.

Wildlife-vehicle collisions are an ever-present threat in rural areas around the world, and there is certainly nothing funny about suddenly finding an angry moose in your headlights on a sharp bend. A variety of detection and avoidance systems are currently in use or under development to help prevent your vehicle being

    As authorities strive to reduce expenditure and carbon emissions, Colin Sowman looks at some of the smart ways of managing street lighting while containing costs and maintaining safety. Street lighting can account for 40% of an authority’s energy consumption. So, faced with the need to reduce outgoings, some authorities are looking for smart ways of managing street lighting or even turning off swathes of street lights in the small hours. Back in 2008 the E-street Initiative report concluded that authorities
  • High-res traffic data provides planners with the big picture

    Road authorities have a lot to gain from high-resolution traffic data, argues Pravin Varaiya. Traffic engineers have traditionally been forced to operate with limited data regarding the performance of their arterials. Traffic studies are often commissioned once every three years, over a few days, to get an updated estimate of utilization.
