Using CCTV and intelligent counting units, a video vehicle traffic counting system achieves over 98% accuracy in all conditions: day and night in rain, sun and snow. Cars are counted as they pass through the counting zone One camera covers several exits of a junction. At four-way junctions, for example, the system provides multi-directional counts for vehicles turning north, south, east or west and coming from any direction - making the system very cost-effective. There is no limit to the number of roads and junctions on which traffic can be counted using the scalable CCTV system.  Local video analytics minimises bandwidth use. Traffic counts are uploaded in real-time via the internet, so traffic engineers can view live (down to 15 m...

Let us first roll back to the history of DCS and PLC. Process plants used to have long series of panel mounted Single Loop Controllers (PID controllers). In Single loop controllers, the control was non-centric and distributed. In early 80s, manufacturers came up with an idea of integrating all the PID controllers to a central digital system still maintaining the ...

Automated passenger sensing system provides reliable data at low cost, no matter how busy the service. Using CCTV and intelligent people counters, the sensing system logs numbers of people getting on and off buses, trains or other public transit system at each stop or station.
