According to Buddy Cruz, an area manager for the company, the sensors are the only product in the marketplace that can be used for traffic counting, intersection control and enforcement applications.

The ability for DoTs to combine all three ITS applications in a single solution is a major cost benefit, according to Cruz. He said that traffic agencies can move the sensors around and use them for various applications such as monitoring cars as they travel through an intersection or analysing driver behavior over a stretch of road--throughout the lifecycle of the sensor.

In addition to the typical lead gen, the company is looking to meet potential OEM partners at the conference.

    Although the recession had dramatically reduced traffic volumes in the past few years, the economy was on the brink of a recovery that portended well for jobs but poorly for traffic congestion. Leaders of four government agencies in Houston, Texas, got together to discuss how to collectively cope with the expected increase in vehicles on the road. "They knew they couldn't pour enough concrete to solve the problem, and they also knew the old model of working in a vacuum as standalone entities would fail," sa

    Advances in technology make it possible for authorities to compile and maintain MaaS platforms cheaply - and without relinquishing control to third parties. Colin Sowman finds out more… It is increasingly clear that local authorities’ reluctance to implement Mobility as a Service (MaaS) is based on politics and finance. However, the technology underpinning MaaS is evolving rapidly and is presenting new solutions. At its heart, the political resistance comes down to the divide between the ethos of public

    Sony’s Arnaud Destruels explains the benefits of CMOS sensors for ITS applications. In the transport sector roadside, trackside and platform cameras were devices for viewing and assessing a situation while individual sensors did all the clever stuff like traffic counting, speed calculation, queue lengths, signal status and so on. Well, not any more.
