Sitraffic Guide is a new type of dynamic parking guidance system from Siemens Mobility. It has been developed not only to guide car drivers to unoccupied parking spaces in a city but also to be used as an integral part of a traffic management control centre. Previously, according to Siemens, parking guidance systems were mostly operated as isolated, standalone systems. However, communities are now requiring that such sys

Hi-Tech Solutions, a developer and provider of optical character recognition (OCR) computer vision systems, has announced a special License Plate Recognition (LPR) solution for sports stadiums. The system allows a huge number of cars to enter and exit the stadium's parking lot easily and rapidly, avoiding bottlenecks, allowing VIP entry, enhancing security and helping the police.

Consider this: "the most important reform should be that of speed limits and the criteria by which they are set". And this: "a successful road safety solution reduces casualties and catches few people because offence rates are so low". Both statements come from the article on pages 28-30 of this issue on business models for automated enforcement. Both come from established figures in the field (respectively, Paolo Sodi of Sodi Scientifica and Geoff Collins of Speed Check Services); and both highlight the ya

Communication Networks (ComNet) has launched what it claims is a revolutionary new fibre-optic video product line that can seamlessly restore a CCTV network. The ComNet SHR line consists of the FVTFVR1010SHR single channel with data series, the FVT/FVR4014SHR series four video channels with four data channels and FVT/FVR8018SHR series eight video channels with eight data channels.
