Norwegian companies FourC and Dogu have developed the Cities in Motion LiveScreen service to provide passenger information and infotainment in public transport vehicles, at bus stops and in roadside installations. Built on Dogu’s LiveScreen digital signage solution and utilising a monitor control integrated into the service platform, LiveScreen can run with most existing and possibly closed loop passenger information systems that are already installed in public transport vehicles, with almost no change to

Flir Systems will be launching the Flir TrafiOne Smart City Sensor, an all-round detection sensor for traffic monitoring and dynamic traffic signal control. Offered in a compact and easy-to-install package, the system uses thermal imaging and wi-fi technology to provide traffic engineers with high-resolution data on vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians at intersections and in urban environments. The Flir TrafiOne sensor uses thermal imaging to detect the presence of pedestrians and cyclists who are approac

Econolite’s booth at ITS America San Jose will feature the company’s new anti-graffiti, high definition cabinet wraps (pictured), as well as showcasing its extensive portfolio of infrastructure building blocks for connected and autonomous vehicles, in support of this year’s event theme: “Integrated Mobility. Transportation Redefined.”

Sensys Networks will use ITS America 2016 San Jose to launch SensTraffic, the company’s new traffic data platform. In addition to traffic counts, the platform provides a variety of data modules for travel time, origin/destination, high-resolution performance measures, on-demand signal timing data, bicycle counts and complete system diagnostics. The new platform has already proven itself. To help traffic flow efficiently across The Golden Gate Bridge, one of the most heavily trafficked corridors in the Bay

Traffic priority control systems supplier Global Traffic Technologies has introduced a cellular-enabled version of its widely-used Opticom multimode phase selector for priority traffic signalling to assist in the swift and safe passage of emergency vehicles or to regulate the flow of public transit vehicles.
