119 Sensys Networks will use ITS America 2016 San Jose to launch SensTraffic, the company’s new traffic data platform. In addition to traffic counts, the platform provides a variety of data modules for travel time, origin/destination, high-resolution performance measures, on-demand signal timing data, bicycle counts and complete system diagnostics.

The new platform has already proven itself. To help traffic flow efficiently across The Golden Gate Bridge, one of the most heavily trafficked corridors in the Bay Area, the Golden Gate Bridge Highway & Transportation District selected Sensys Networks to get accurate real-time traffic counts on a per-lane basis. The agency also needed detailed monitoring and data logging capabilities to feed displays, trigger traffic alarms and provide monthly reports. The data is supplied through Sensys Networks’ SensTraffic data platform service.

    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c

    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the
