Iteris has introduced Abacus 2.0, its next-generation traffic incident detection and data collection product. It provides traffic engineers and departments of transportation a software-based 'force multiplier' that leverages existing camera systems to collect real-time traffic data, rapidly identify incidents, and gain enhanced traffic flow information in a ready-to-use graphical user interface format.

Stemmer Imaging has announced the VTR3, a compact, integrated enclosure for traffic monitoring applications, complete with camera, lens and high brightness infrared or white LED lighting technology. The unit's high-brightness strobed LED illumination source from Gardasoft Vision is designed for ANPR applications such as car park entry/exit or average speed installations spanning many lanes. The lights can strobe in sync with a free running camera, or they can accept an external trigger signal to synchronise

Sony Europe's Image Sensing Solutions division has extended its XCG range of GigE machine vision cameras with the launch of the XCG-H280E. According to the company, its resolution, high frame rate and ability to work in low light conditions make the camera module ideally suited to ITS applications, where image quality, sensitivity and speed are paramount. The camera module implements the ICX-674 full HD resolution CCD sensor, capable of running at up to 50fps and is the first sensor to benefit from Sony's n

Cortech Developments has launched Datalog 5 for Windows 7 to allow organisations to integrate building, fire, and security control technology into a single, easy-tooperate solution. Multiple sites can be integrated into a central management suite whilst operators are still able to monitor and manage each sub system, such as access control, perimeter and intruder sensors, intercoms, CCTV cameras and DVRs, radio paging and more, straight from the system. Datalog 5 can further be configured to automatically re

The U-blox 6 GPS receiver platform has been upgraded to provide improved sensitivity, significantly lower power consumption, improved antijamming performance, jamming detection and shorter Time To First Fix (TTFF). Most importantly, the company says the new firmware delivers improved tracking sensitivity down to -162dBm with enhanced acquisition and re-acquisition sensitivity. U-blox claims that not only does this make the chip one of the most sensitive receivers on the market, but GPS can now deliver posit

Sensys Networks has announced a major upgrade to TrafficDOT that includes a redesigned graphical user interface which greatly simplifies all aspects of VDS240 wireless vehicle detection system configuration, monitoring and diagnostics. Hardware iconography for sensors, access points, repeaters and contact closure cards enable 'drag and drop' design capabilities, autoconfiguration of time slots and double-click functionality to instantly configure components and RF paths. Sensys Networks says that improved s

The new UHF EPC Gen 2 reader model XT-3 from TagMaster, a long-range RFID reader, is designed for outdoor installations classified for IP-65 levels of ingression protection.

Pelco has expanded its line of viewing solutions to include new narrow bezel LCD monitors. With full high-definition 1,920x1,080p resolution and edges that range from just 9.6 mm to 17.4 mm, these monitors can be tiled together to create a virtually seamless video wall.

Austria-headquartered Efkon has announced its latest innovation - the Image to Information (I-to-I) Reader, an innovative product which builds on established technology. Although the new device weighs a mere 1.0kg, it incorporates two cameras, a flash, computer, communications unit and power supply in a package small enough to fit in the palm of a hand. Moreover, the I-to-I Reader requires only a standard cable for data and power connection. Despite its compact appearance, Efkon says there is no compromise

Telvent has announced an important expansion of its weather information systems and forecast services with the launch of Telvent Total View - a comprehensive solution that takes advantage of distributed multi-nodal platform controls integrated via cloud computing. It efficiently collects the weather measurements users specify and combines them, through the secure computing cloud, with forecasts and operational data from clients' enterprise-level platforms.

Hi-Tech Solutions (HTS) has announced the VIR (Vehicle Identity Recognition) suite, a patent-pending technology which the company claims is a generation ahead of basic Licence Plate Recognition (LPR). The VIR suite recognises vehicle manufacturer logos (car make), car model, vehicle body and plate colours, country or state names and special icons on the plate itself (such as a handicap badge). HTS says the recognition capabilities of the numerous parameters identifying vehicles greatly enhance and improve v
