Description
LTR5001 is a vehicle detector based on two laser scanners and one microwave radar.
One laser scanner is installed along with the radar in the middle of the lane and its detection area is parallel to the lane; the other is installed on the side of the lane and detects perpendicular to the road. The longitudinal laser tracks the vehicle as it moves along the lane and measures its position, speed, and length.
It can trigger an alarm when a vehicle reaches a distance from 0 to 15 meters from the sensor.
The radar Doppler can measure vehicles’ speed with extreme precision.
The transversal scanner measures the width, height, and profile of the vehicles, providing an accurate classification of the transits.
LTR5001 can distinguish more than 20 classes of vehicles, including motorcycles, cars, vans, trucks, lorries, articulated lorries, and buses. The sensor has been built from both the mechanical and firmware points of view to work outdoors even in adverse weather conditions. The firmware implements filters for rain and snow.
The scanner optic consists of two physically distinct areas for laser transmission and reception, making it remarkably immune to the opacity produced by dust, water, and pollution.
The sensor is equipped with a CPU that processes the signals received to obtain all the data related to the transited vehicle. Communication with the master sensor occurs via Ethernet and the configuration can be performed using simple and intuitive web pages.
