Description
RSR4001 is a vehicle detector based on laser scanner and radar doppler technologies. The radar uses microwave technology, particularly the Doppler effect, to measure the speed of vehicles with extreme precision. The laser scanner measures the profile of the vehicles, allowing for the precise classification of the transits.
RSR4001 distinguishes more than 20 classes of vehicles, including motorcycles, cars, vans, trucks, lorries, articulated lorries, and buses. Using two different technologies enables the sensor to be very accurate and to measure all data about transit.
The sensor has been built from both the mechanical and firmware points of view in order to work outdoors even in adverse weather conditions. The firmware implements filters for rain and snow.
The scanner optic has two physically distinct areas for laser transmission and reception, making it remarkably immune to the opacity produced by dust, water and pollution.
The microwave technology with the “patch” antenna and an opening angle of 12° x 25° is very precise in detecting speed.
The sensor is equipped with a CPU that processes the signals, received from the scanner and the radar, to obtain all the data related to the transited vehicle. Communication with the sensor occurs via an Ethernet line and the configuration can be performed using simple and intuitive web pages.
INSTALLATION
The RSR4001 sensor must be installed above the center of the lane. The opening angle of the laser beam and the radar signal are designed to cover the entire width of the lane, allowing it to detect even motorcycles that do not pass through the middle of the lane.
The data provided by this sensor are:
- Count;
- Classification;
- Speed;
- Height;
- Length;
- Traffic status.
VEHICLES PROFILING
In addition to the transit data, the RSR4001 also provides a file in 3D format that allows one to see the transit image from different perspectives.
