Safety, security, road user charging and how it all comes together as the backbone of a smart road network - these are the topics that German machine vision specialist 147 Vitronic will focus on at Intertraffic Amsterdam 2018. The company will showcase how its product range can be applied to a host of applications, from speed and red light enforcement, average speed enforcement, wanted cars search and border control, to electronic toll collection (ETC).


“We have completed our portfolio and will present some new solutions for the first time in Amsterdam, like our pole mounted Compact City Housing and the Tollchecker Roadside gantry-less tolling system,” says Boris Wagner, director of sales Traffic Technology Division at Vitronic.

The Compact City Housing allows Lidar-based traffic monitoring from a height of up to three metres, keeping the system out of reach from vandalism and minimising its footprint at the roadside. It supports multi-lane, multiple vehicle tracking and classification, as well as ANPR functionalities.

Tollchecker Roadside is a new alternative to gantry-based ETC systems. It uses machine vision technology to precisely determine a vehicle’s dimensions and identity from the side of the road.

Vitronic will also show its back office software portfolio for remote system monitoring and accessing, case data processing and traffic data management.

    Colin Sowman looks at some of the challenges and solutions that will provide enhanced transport efficiency in tomorrow’s smarter cities. However you define a ‘smart city’, one of the key ingredients will be an efficient transport system. As most governments and city authorities face financial constraints, incremental improvements in the existing systems is the most likely way forward. In London, new trains and signalling are improving the capacity of the Underground but that then reveals previously

    Hitting an animal on a rural road can be fatal for all parties involved – but detecting and avoiding them requires clever technology. Andrew Williams carefully scans the horizon for details. Wildlife-vehicle collisions are an ever-present threat in rural areas around the world, and there is certainly nothing funny about suddenly finding an angry moose in your headlights on a sharp bend. A variety of detection and avoidance systems are currently in use or under development to help prevent your vehicle being
  • Options abound for road weather sensing
    September 6, 2017
    Meteorological organisations invest millions in super-computers to crunch data for ever-more accurate forecasts but inherent unpredictability means that other methods of alerting drivers and road authorities to fast-changing weather and highway conditions are essential. For years, static weather sensors to measure factors such as surface water, ice or high roadway temperatures have been embedded in highways to provide such data. But that is changing.
