WTI upgrades Sidewinder HD camera with 30x optical zoom

Wireless Technology, Inc. (WTI) introduced a new Sidewinder H.264 high definition camera with a 30x optical zoom. The new camera also offers electronic image stabilization, de-fogging feature and wide dynamic range. The Sidewinder H.264 supports 1080p, 720p, Standard Definition, and below standard definition resolutions.

6574 Wireless Technology, Inc. (WTI) introduced a new Sidewinder H.264 high definition camera with a 30x optical zoom. The new camera also offers electronic image stabilization, de-fogging feature and wide dynamic range. The Sidewinder H.264 supports 1080p, 720p, Standard Definition, and below standard definition resolutions.

The Sidewinder H.264 camera series offers 360 degree continuous rotation in both the pan and tilt axes; specially designed Hydrophilic “self cleaning (maintenance cost lowering)” glass; and thermostatically controlled electrically conductive windows. The entire camera is IP67 with or without pressurization. To eliminate preset drift, WTI designs and manufactures its own stepper drivers for the stepper motors, resulting in a .05 preset repeatability — meaning the camera remains dead on its preset. The Sidewinder H.264 HD30 camera allows for easy integration into existing analog and IP infrastructures, supporting ONVIF, NTCIP and many other protocols.

    The FOTsis project addresses the imbalances between the vehicular and infrastructure sides of cooperative ITS infrastructures and looks to ensure road operators can help to enrich future technology applications. By Jason Barnes. Several developments have conspired to push the vehicular side of cooperative infrastructures/cooperative ITS to the fore in recent years. The automotive industry’s rather shorter product development and lifecycles combined with economic slowdown in many regions gave rise to the not

    Driverless cars will have a detrimental effect on congestion and security while the road safety benefits can be achieved sooner and cheaper using ADAS, argues Colin Sowman. Many Governments are consulting about the introduction of driverless vehicles and even running trials. As 70% or 80% of crashes are caused by human error, the promise of a crash-free future of driverless, self-driving or autonomous vehicles (call them what you will) is alluring, as are the claims of reduced congestion and lower emissions

    Paul Godsmark gives his views on what the advent of autonomous vehicles would mean for the wider society. Further to your article ‘Driver not required…’ in the Jan/Feb edition of ITS International which gave some great background to autonomous road vehicle (ARVs), I feel that the bigger picture is needed to aid understanding. There is a ‘technology freight train’ heading our way that is going to transform our roadways but we don’t seem to be aware of it and, therefore, are in no hurry to react.
