BREAKING NEWS! TMT HAS DONE IT ONCE AGAIN! USING CUTTING EDGE SENSOR TECHNOLOGY

eThekwini Transport Authority has just awarded another NON INTRUSIVE SENSOR tender to Traffic Management Technologies (Pty) Ltd.

22 Wavetronix SmartSensors HD were ordered to improve the effectiveness of the Traffic Management System in reducing traffic congestion along the M4 North highway in eThekwini, Kwazulu Natal.

SmartSensor HD is the first high definition detective device in the industry and it represents a huge leap in technology with features that include:

  • State-of-the-art radar systems that gives the device five times the resolution of previous generations
  • A dual-radar design that enables accurate per vehicle speed measurements even at low speeds (less than 5km/hr)
  • PocketPC® - based configuration software that makes field configuration quicker and easier than ever before

In addition to these innovative features, SmartSensor HD also provides and extended detection range of 85 meters, up to ten lanes of simultaneous traffic detention, and new, never – before – available measurements for 85th percentile speeds, average headway, and average gap. The SmartSensor HD is also designed to be extremely reliable and does not require preventative maintenance or repairs.

Some advantages:

  • This new technology is easy to maintain
  • No cleaning is required
  • Microwave is not affected by high humidity, rain, fog or dust
  • Any road configuration changes can be adjusted from the control room over the data connection. There is no need to send a technician out to make adjustments.
  • Super capacitors are used to keep the on-board memory and real-time clock alive during extended power failures. This is more reliable than lithium batteries and has a life expectancy of over 20 years.
  • The enclosure is made from high quality UV stable plastic
  • There is no wiring or complicated mechanicals inside that may deteriorate with vibration
  • The whole sensor is manufactured utilising the highest quality printed circuit board materials and technology
  • Calibration and adjustment is much simpler and completely fool proof.
  • The alignment of the sensor can even be monitored right from the control room while being installed.
