Applications

Vehicle counting & classification

Vehicle counting (traffic monitoring) Traffic monitoring systems are spreading rapidly across Europe and the world. The need to monitor traffic flows arises from the need to manage the traffic system and create a statistical database to study the use of road infrastructure. For both reasons, vehicle...

Average speed – Travel time – Origin/Destination

A traffic monitoring application using Bluetooth sensors is designed to track and analyze vehicle movement in urban areas. These systems utilize Bluetooth-enabled devices installed at strategic points, such as intersections or highways. Here's how it typically works.​ ​ Bluetooth sensors detect signals emitted by devices like smartphones,...

Bike & pedestrian counting

These days, city governments need complex data and clear graphs to understand the behavior of pedestrians and cyclists in their cities. Bicycle counters serve this purpose, but not only that.​ Bicycle counters consist of a sensor and a display. The sensor is placed at a pole...

IN/OUT parking management system

The Parking In/Out system is designed to define a car park's occupancy state by detecting incoming and outgoing vehicles. Each time a vehicle enters the parking lot, the parking places available are reduced by one and incremented by one when a vehicle exits.​ The system is...

Free-flow tolling

Free-flow tolling is a new system in which vehicles do not need to stop at toll booths to pay their toll tax. The aim is to replace the traditional systems where vehicles must stop (stop & go tolling) or slow down (automatic lanes) with portals...

Stop&go tolling

Laser scanner sensors are increasingly used in toll applications thanks to their high accuracy in vehicle counting and classification.​ In some applications, laser sensors are mainly used to detect vehicle presence at a toll plaza. They also provide the following information:​ Vehicle entry trigger​ Vehicle exit...

Access regulations – Urban road charging schemes

Nowadays, urban road charging schemes are widely used to reduce traffic jams and congestion in cities. At the same time, they can also improve air quality and reduce emissions. A great number of countries are adopting Congestion Charge Zones to regulate access to whole or parts...

3D vehicle detection system

The 3D Vehicle Detection System provides a high-quality 3D file with vehicle height, width, length and volume.​ Typical applications are:​ Analysis of trucks in harbors;​ Analysis of vehicles at borders (e.g., in combination with X-ray machines);​ Weigh-in-motion: this application is useful when you need to obtain...

OHVD systems – Over-height vehicle height detection

Over-height vehicles collide with bridges and tunnels frequently. Due to their low clearance height, older bridges are now considered at risk of vehicular strikes. A bridge or tunnel strike occurs when a vehicle, typically a lorry or a truck (even vehicle cranes or oversized loads),...
