Jenoptik Robot has launched the new Robot Smart Camera IV for speed and red light surveillance. This high-resolution digital system operates with a two-lens technology, enabling simultaneous still photos and video recordings, for example. Although compact in size, the device can monitor up to six lanes of traffic. The integrated, intelligent technology allows for immediate and automatic number plate identification which can be matched with a database, for example, for identification of wanted vehicles and s

Cambridge Pixel, a developer of primary radar, acquisition, processing and display solutions, has extended its product offering in radar display with the introduction of the SPx Radar Image Server (SPx-RIS). Developed to provide a cost-effective single-licence solution for point to multipoint radar display applications, it can distribute up to four scan-converted images to multiple display clients including standard web browsers or custom-written applications in Linux or Windows. No client license is requir

Bosch Security Systems has launched the new Aegis SuperLED, a high performance LED-based illuminator with rugged IP66 rated construction and long-range surveillance capabilities of more than 300 metres. Well suited to integrate with Bosch's Dinion cameras, the unit, which is available in 850nm and covert 940nm infrared options, features Bosch's 'constant light' technology which automatically controls and adjusts light output to compensate for LED degradation.

The newly launched Zeag Orion Xbit is designed for smaller enterprises (up to 100 spaces) with a need for a simple but professional car parking solution but who don't require a lot of peripherals, complex software and reporting systems. The unit accepts all payment methods including cash, cards, credit tickets and tokens, and provides a basic level of services including transaction reporting. The Xbit can work in standalone mode, meaning installation is quick and easy with minimum disruption as no costly ca

PIPS Technology has launched SpikeletSP, a solar-powered ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) camera, designed to be powered from a single solar panel for an unlimited period of time. The device is a fully integrated number plate recognition unit incorporating the camera(s), illuminator, data and image processing within a single sealed enclosure. Wireless IP connectivity over GPRS, EDGE or 3G can be provided by fitting an optional modem, making SpikeletSP truly wireless without the need for power or co

The Idle Guard 200, from Transportation Safety Technologies (TST), is a solid state, reliable timer that automatically prevents unnecessary engine idling in fleet and delivery vehicles. It is triggered by a signal from the park brake on a manual transmission or the park/neutral switch on an automatic transmission. The device is offered in three models, providing engine shut off after three, five or 15 minutes by either fuel shut off with a diesel, or by the ignition with a gasoline engine.

Bridgelux and Molex have introduced what they claim is the first LED lighting solution designed and priced to drive rapid, mass market adoption of LED lighting technology. At a volume price point at less than US$20 per unit, and a lifespan of more than 10 years, the partners claim the Helieon Sustainable Light Module is one of the industry's highest quality, most cost-effective solid state lighting solutions, and it will change the way LED lighting solutions are used.

Japanese 3D simulation specialist Forum8 has launched its latest Drive Simulation software plug-in for its award winning interactive VR software UC-win/Road. The plug-in enables users to benefit from the improved vehicle dynamics afforded by incorporating CarSim software into their overall simulator system. CarSim, produced by Mechanical Simulation, is specialist software for simulating and analysing the behaviour of four-wheeled vehicles in response to steering, braking, and acceleration inputs. Chassis sy

Apollo Video Technology has released the RoadRunner Mobile App for the iPhone and iPod Touch to allow transit officials to view live video feeds from buses, trains, police cars and transit facilities. "The RoadRunner Mobile Application is the first iPhone app aimed specifically at transit officials and first responders," said Rodell Notbohm, general manager of Apollo Video Technology.

Traficon has announced its first automatic incident detection (AID) board for analysing images coming from network cameras. The new multi-functional Video Image Processor for traffic control (VIP-IP) has been developed to respond to the upcoming trend towards IP cameras, and is being launched at the same time as Flux, a new video detection management system.

Iteris has launched Pico, a compact video detection system that delivers superior vehicle detection in a small and economical package. Designed to address international video detection needs, the system includes a weather resistant camera sensor with a built-in vehicle detection processor and an interface controller that resides in the traffic cabinet. Designed for easy installation and configuration, Iteris says the device can be mounted at low heights with no need for special poles or mounting apparatus.

TagMaster has launched the XT series readers and ID-tags addressing the EPC Gen 2 specification designed for application areas such as parking, gated communities, and condominiums as well as people access. TagMaster is initially introducing the XT-2eu and XT-2us to its UHF series. The XT-2eu is designed to comply with the European regulations for ISO18000-6 type C, while the XT-2us is designed for the North American regulations, in terms of frequency range and output power.

Fujinon has introduced two newly developed, 2/3" sensor size 5 Megapixel lenses for day/night applications: the HF35SR4A-1/SA1, with a focal length of f=35mm and F2, and the HF50SR4A-1/SA1, offering f=50mm and F2.8. Iris control can be either manual or automatic, by DC signal. Due to the combination of high resolution and IR correction, the company says these lenses are ideally suited for CCTV and security as well as for traffic applications, such as automatic number plate recognition.

A new camera range from Stemmer Imaging uses a sensor, based on solar cell technology, to allow imaging from scenes which simultaneously contain both very light and very dark areas. The company says this makes them ideally suited to use in environments with a very high dynamic range, or where there are strong and unpredictable brightness fluctuations. The new FX4 HDR (High Dynamic Range) sensor produces a logarithmic signal output. This enables fine differences in brightness to be imaged even in very bright

The Prosilica GX-Series from Allied Vision Technologies (AVT) is available with five sensors from 1-8 megapixels and a new thermal management housing.
