Typical speed enforcement situations: One direction of travel is documented whilst speeding drivers traveling in the opposite direction evade enforcement;
PoliScanspeed and the new remote camera detect and document speed violations in numerous traffic situations. In many countries driver photos are required; in other situations they are unneces-sary or not permitted. In both cases the traffic can only be fully enforced in a single direction. With the new enforcement solution from VITRONIC both oncoming and receding vehicles can be cap-tured. This includes motorcycles which, until recently, have man-aged to escape detection. The remote camera can even be posi-tioned to take profile images of car and truck drivers where previ-ously the A-Column or a navigation system prevented clear identi-fication.
The remote camera is connected to the PoliScanspeed system via WLAN and simultaneously captures infringement images. The system consists of a high-resolution camera, flash and function box. It can be tripod-mounted or placed on the ground. In the case of a speed violation the PoliScanspeed system takes a photo and sends a signal to the remote camera which captures a second image. All data are then transferred to the operator where the case is compiled and encrypted. The cases, even from challeng-ing traffic situations, are valid before a court of law.
The PoliScanspeed system detects, captures and documents speed violations fully-automatically using digital camera technology. At the core of the system is next-generation LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) technology, which uses time-of-flight measurements to calculate vehicle speeds. The system is certified for unattended use and eliminates the need for costly in-road equipment. It can measure in challenging traffic situations such as in curves, on bends and through road works.
