Wavetronix's Smartsensor HD in focus

Wavetronix will use Intertraffic Amsterdam 2018 to showcase the SmartSensor HD, a side-fire radar that uses dual radar to create a speed trap resulting in superior per vehicle speed accuracy data for arterial management. By timing how long a vehicle takes to go from one beam to the next, HD is able to replicate a speed trap for every lane on both sides of the highway, replacing at least two loops per lane. The device is also able to determine direction of travel, vital for applications such as reversible

Solar power has been relatively slow in entering the transport sector, but a current blossoming of activity bodes well for the large-scale harnessing of an alternative energy that is zero-emission at source and, in practical terms, infinitely renewable. Traffic management and traveller information systems, and actual vehicles, are all emerging as areas for deployment. Meanwhile roads themselves are being viewed as new-style, fossil fuel-free ‘power stati

    Researchers at Imperial College in London have developed a generic three-stage short-term travel prediction model that promises to give greater accuracy under both normal and abnormal conditions. As travellers do not like the randomness of non-recurrent traffic congestion and delays, it is particularly useful for network managers to know how the ongoing traffic situation will develop when an atypical event occurs.
