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

    Almost 1,000 highway deaths in Illinois in 2013 and some of the worst interstate traffic congestion in the country has prompted the state to launch a US$45 million trial to investigate whether a blend of technologies can make smarter highways which are safer for drivers and less prone to congestion. Traffic engineers are focusing initially on the Edens Expressway and the northern stretch of US Highway 41 and will begin incorporating a mix of existing and new technology during the next two years, an under
