826 TrafficCast International is here at ITS America Detroit with a live demonstration of connecting mobile devices and connected vehicles to the company’s IoT data collection and analytics platform.As the company points out, by providing a multi-purpose vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) roadside application platform, TrafficCast products and services are used as the foundation to enable a variety of smart city technology strategies. Included is a new approach to roadside sensor functionality: TrafficCast’s BlueToad Spectra RSU combines two wireless technologies, discoverable (unpaired) and non-discoverable (paired) Bluetooth (2.4 GHz) and Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC, 5.9 GHz) installed within one roadside device.DSRC coupled with TrafficCast’s BlueToad Spectra detection can help guide initiatives in connected and autonomous vehicle applications. TrafficCast says its BlueToad travel time system is already the market leader in Bluetooth signal detection technologies, used in performance measures assessments to manage travel times, road speeds and route choice behaviours. As the live demonstration here in Detroit will show visitors to the company’s booth, the system just got better.
