With the recent acquisitions of 7083 Truesense Imaging and Aptina Imaging, ON Semiconductor is now a major supplier of high-performance image sensor solutions used in intelligent transportation systems (ITS), including traffic enforcement, intersection monitoring, and automated number plate recognition (ANPR).
High resolution, wide field of view, and wide aspect ratio image sensors allow a single device to capture multiple lanes of traf¬fic in a single image, while the high sensitivity, integrated electronic shutter, and high smear rejection available from these devices allow the capture of crisp, clean images.
With a broad portfolio of CCD and CMOS technologies in a variety of resolutions, optical formats and frame rates, 7914 ON Semiconductor is truly a “one-stop-shop” for camera makers who need solutions for a wide variety of customer requirements and is well positioned to provide the most competitive imaging solutions for the ITS market.

In an effort to break stagnation in the DSRC market, Arada Systems has developed a DSRC radio that can plug into any device with a USB port. The idea is that USB will help proliferate DSRC and drive down pricing, leading to a wave of new applications and innovation.
An innovative intelligent bicycle parking system has been named the overall winner of the 2014 Intertraffic Innovation Awards. Entered by HR Groep Traffic & Signing, the MB Track & Trace system - which is being trialed in Rotterdam – also won the Smart Mobility section and beat off the other category winners (ITS/Traffic Management; Parking; Safety; and Infrastructure) to claim the award.
Scottish firm Findlay Irvine has developed a sophisticated new microgrip testing system. This is a walk-behind surface friction measurement unit that shares many operating capabilities with the firm’s proven towed unit.
Business development manager Campbell Waddell explained: “It works on the same principle as the towed machine. We developed it as we kept getting asked to use the trailer based unit for jobs it wasn’t suited to, like pedestrian areas and cycleways.”
Gardasoft is demonstrating how to capture high-quality images of fast-moving vehicles using an innovative liquid lens concept. This, the company says, provides significant performance benefits over traditional, fixed-focus lenses. Many ITS applications require vision systems which can cope with widely varying distances between object and camera. A challenge in the ITS space is the high speeds which can be encountered, particularly in free-flowing traffic. Gardasoft’s approach features a shape-changing
