Italian company Tattile has introduced an ANPR-based free flow tolling system. The all-in-one solution provides a detection rate of better than 99.5% and features two 5Mp CMOS technology sensors, dedicated to number plate reading and context images respectively. The company says the system is able to capture and process up to 75 images per second, detecting vehicles at speeds up to 250 km/h.

Schrader, a Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) specialist, has expanded coverage for the company's EZ-Sensor technology. Claimed to be the automotive industry's first patented OE-replacement TPMS sensor that can be programmed to function across diverse car makes and models, EZ-Sensor now covers over 62 per cent of TPMS-enabled vehicles in the US - over 30 million vehicles - including new support for vehicle platforms such as Dodge and Jeep and expanded coverage for existing platforms like Ford, Chrysle

ComNet Europe is introducing the CopperLine product line to bring to market its expanded Ethernet over existing copper media transmission product offering which includes multiple-channel Ethernet extenders, un-managed Ethernet switches and PoE mid-span power injectors.

Metric Parking is bringing its latest technological development to the market - a new electric vehicle charging system. According to the company's UK sales and marketing manager, Richard Boultbee, charging points can be installed with 'little fuss' and allow the provider to offer every payment option to the electric vehicle motorist.

Videotec has announced that its series of IP-based positioning systems, Ulisse, Ulisse Compact and Maxmus, support the ONVIF protocol. As a result, the entire range of Videotec IP-based PTZ can be integrated easily into a digital system and offer IP control of all PTZ functions. All video and telemetry data are converted and sent over the network. The company claims the system offers the highest video compression rate via MPEG-4 technology for live video. The max frame rate is 25fps with max picture resolut

Advantech Industrial Automation Group has introduced two new eight-port EN50155 IP67 managed Ethernet switches, the EKI-6558TI and EKI-6559TMI. The company says that EN50155 certification and redundant X-ring allows for trusted connection to Ethernet networks, which is particularly useful for passenger information and video surveillance systems. The devices feature IP67-rated housings and vibration-resistant M12 connectors.

Cooper Lighting has upgraded its outdoor LED LightBar technology to improve lumen output and efficiency, while continuing to offer up to 75% in energy savings over traditional high intensity discharge (HID) outdoor lighting sources.

Apollo Video Technology has announced that health reports of mobile video surveillance systems for public transit vehicles, including cameras, digital video recorders (DVRs) and hard drives, can now be accessed in conjunction with existing features available with its Video information Management (ViM) software.

Vicon Industries has introduced two new H.264 network encoders - four-channel and 16-channel models - that convert analogue camera inputs (both NTSC/EIA and PAL/CCIR) into streamed IP video data. Advanced features such as museum search that permits users to conduct quick analysis of recorded events, as well as dynamic load balancing and automatic detection, are provided when the device is used as part of a ViconNet Video Management System (VMS).

Advanced Micro Peripherals' modular, rugged IP streamer/server is designed for remote video monitoring applications in defence and critical infrastructure. The Hydra system supports up to nine channels of video streaming along with a single audio input channel. It has been designed and tested for both fixed and mobile applications in the toughest conditions, making use of military grade MIL-DTL-38999 connectors (with dust covers), input power protection for compatibility with vehicle power systems and infra

Allied Vision Technologies (AVT) has launched Prosilica GT, a new range of GigE Vision compliant digital cameras designed to perform in extreme environments and fluctuating lighting conditions. The company says the range offers new advanced features well suited for outdoor installations such as ITS and traffic monitoring, public security and surveillance. Designed to minimise field maintenance by surviving extreme weather events, the Prosilica GT features a rugged thermal housing for maximum heat dissipat

A new radio from Banner Engineering combines wireless transceiver, power supply and I/O circuits in one compact housing. The DX80DR MultiHop Radio connects sensors directly to the network, eliminating need for data loggers, power supplies, PLCs or HMIs at the sensor location. The MultiHop system automatically repeats wireless messages as needed to extend distance capability to 20 km or more. Radios can be powered by 10-30 VDC, battery or solar power supply.

APT Technologies has launched a new ultra-fast EV charger as part of its Evolt range. The Evolt Ultra system, which meets CHAdeMo's standards, charges an electric vehicle in just 15 minutes and houses a dual charger to enable two vehicles to be charged simultaneously "The Evolt Ultra is smaller, slicker and most importantly, faster than anything previously developed in the area of electric vehicle charging," says Justin Meyer of APT Technologies. "The speed of charge will render electric vehicles suitable f

Spanish specialist in wireless sensor networks Libelium has launched the Vehicle Traffic Monitoring Platform as part of its Smart Cities solution. The platform is capable of sensing the flow of Bluetooth devices in a given street, roadway or passageway while differentiating hands-free car kits from pedestrian phones. Sensor data is then transferred by a multi-hop ZigBee radio, via an Internet gateway, to a server. Traffic measurements can then be analysed to address congestion of either vehicle or pedestria

Miovision Technologies has launched Scout, its nextgeneration video collection unit that is small enough to fit into a car and allows users to automatically collect traffic data in three simple steps using one device. Users can automate up to eight study types including intersection, roundabout and ADT counts, automatic number plate recognition, origin-destination and travel time studies. Miovision says Scout's comprehensive reporting allows users to extract the information they need with ease.
