Sunrin showcases low-level streetlights for visual guidance

Sunrin is using Intertraffic to promote its Aton and Luna low-level mounting streetlights which are installed one meter above ground and are said to have generated energy savings of up to 50%. These devices are designed with the intention of reducing glare from wet road surface as well as minimising eye fatigue among drivers. Additionally, the restricted light on the surface of the road aims to reduce light pollution created by artificial lights while providing visual guidance of the road contour.

Sunrin is using Intertraffic to promote its Aton and Luna low-level mounting streetlights which are installed one meter above ground and are said to have generated energy savings of up to 50%.


These devices are designed with the intention of reducing glare from wet road surface as well as minimising eye fatigue among drivers.

Additionally, the restricted light on the surface of the road aims to reduce light pollution created by artificial lights while providing visual guidance of the road contour.

The flat and square bar type optical system aims to delivers controlled light distribution without a huge recessed reflector. It can be used in foggy and accident-prone areas as well as bridge areas, intersections and ramp sections.

Traffic flow does not need to be restricted during the installation of the system, according to Sunrin.

    Part of a larger urban zone, the city of Darmstadt near Frankfurt, Germany, does not escape the problems of traffic congestion. In a bid to improve the situation, the city’s traffic authorities have installed more than 200 video detectors from Flir Systems, along with Flir’s video management system, Flux, which monitors the traffic streams coming from a wide variety of cameras. The city is also using various types of video sensors for vehicle, pedestrian and cycle detection, all of which are used to con

    Intelligent intersection control systems have a growing role to play in making urban traffic more efficient. Robin Meczes reports. The idea of every traffic light turning green as you approach it has long been a dream for many an urban driver – and none more so than those driving heavy goods vehicles (HGVs), which are slow and difficult to bring to a halt and then accelerate back to normal travel speed. But that dream has become a reality for some drivers in a small number of cities around Europe in the las

    According to road safety engineer Alan Vass of the Traffic and Road Safety section of Ayrshire Roads Alliance in Scotland, LED road studs have contributed to a 100 per cent reduction in incidents on a stretch of the A719 road in the county. Vass says the active studs, which use LED and solar technology to create delineation shown to be far more effective than traditional retro-reflective studs, could hold the key to a brighter future. He said: “There had been a number of accidents on the A719 near Wat
