592 Tattile is launching a new range of innovative smart ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) cameras at Vision 2016, including the Vega Basic and Vega Smart lines, as well as its current range.

The new range currently includes four models: Vega Basic in black/white and colour versions and Vega Smart in dual- and single-head versions. Camera functionality is enhanced by features normally provided by external devices, which reduces both footprint and cost.

Vega Basic cameras include several new features such as the ability to read both reflecting and non-reflecting number plates without illuminators and Power over Ethernet technology which allows single-cable installation. All the normal Tattile features are available, including the processor, ANPR software and an integrated web server.

Vega Smart is fully scalable and features powerful processors and latest generation sensors, while two OCR software packages increase the recognition rate. In addition, the camera can recognise the brand and colour of vehicles, optically classify them and generate high quality video streams. The cameras can handle several transits per second.

According to Massimiliano Cominelli, sales manager, Tattile Traffic Division, the new cameras address both the immediate and future requirements of the ITS market.

    Jason Barnes looks at Daimler’s Intelligent Drive programme to consider how machine vision has advanced the state of the art of vision-based in-vehicle systems. Traditionally, radar was the in-vehicle Driver Assistance System (DAS) technology of choice, particularly for applications such as adaptive cruise control and pre-crash warning generation. Although vision-based technology has made greater inroads more recently, it is not a case of ‘one sensor wins’. Radar and vision are complementary and redundancy

Like others adopting high-occupancy and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes for congestion management, Caltrans has faced challenges with compliance in what has been effectively an ‘honour system’ with drivers trusted to set their tags correctly or comply with the multi-passenger requirement.

    The X-Stream series of H.264 video encoders and decoders from COE Group includes a single channel boxed encoder, and two and four channel encoders which may be box-housed or rack-mounted. The range also includes a dual-channel decoder, the X-Stream 200D, capable of decoding H.264 streaming Ethernet video for use with analogue devices. By rack mounting X-Stream encoders in a standard X-Net rack, as many as 56 channels of analogue video may be encoded and transmitted across an IP Ethernet network from each ra
