7545 Lector Vision, an international specialist in artificial vision that enables a wide range of applications in the traffic and transport sector, will use Intertraffic Amsterdam 2018 for the world launch of two innovative new products – the Cube camera and Traffic Guard, a ground-breaking software analytics development that was funded by the Spanish government.

The company’s Cube camera was developed in-house at Lector Vision’s Madrid headquarters and has a wide range of applications, including tolling control, car parking and traffic monitoring. It combines the advantages of machine vision cameras and IP cameras; has a top-performing Sony CMOS sensor; motorised lenses; RAW image processing; advanced on-board OCR processing; and full camera control, including digital inputs and outputs. The Cube camera has three H264 video channels per camera so that, for instance, one channel can undertake OCR while the other two channels can send the video signal, in real time, to a different control centre.

Lector Vision’s ground-breaking Traffic Guard analytics software system, development of which was financed by CDTI (Spanish Ministry of Economy), can detect vehicles or objects, and follow them into the image, capturing a range of user-defined different parameters. The system can thus autonomously monitor, control, classify and define alerts for an array of different behaviours on the road.

The Netherlands’ Talking Traffic Partnership (TTP) looks almost too good to be true: an artificial market set up and supported by national, regional and local government to accelerate deployment of Connected ITS (C-ITS) applications. If it does have any serious flaws, these are going to become apparent quite soon, because the first

    The city of Cologne, Germany has installed two CMOS-camera based video pedestrian light systems that will recognise waiting pedestrians and extend the green phase if there are still people crossing after the standard time allocation. The system, implemented by Siemens, uses two Flir cameras. The safe walk camera observes the waiting area. A stereo camera with two CMOS 1/3-inch mono sensors and 3 mm lenses is mounted 3.5 metres above the ground to cover an area of 12 sq m. This camera is set to recognise on
