Citilog announces new version of its AID traffic management software

Version 6 of Citilog’s Automatic Incident Detection (AID) software has been unveiled by the ITS specialist. The new software features performance gains for traffic- and security-related incident detection and monitoring of bridges, tunnels, roadways, highways and intersections. Improvements include a reduction in false alarms by reducing the interference of shadows on monitoring and detection capabilities.

The upgrade enables the company’s VisioPaD system to realize improvements in identifying appropriate object sizes and better trajectory tracking of vehicles. MediaRoad and MediaTunnel products from Citilog will realize a reduction in false alarms to improve traffic operations center incident responses and performance. Accuracy in detecting slow-moving vehicles and those traveling the wrong-way is also improved. Overall video quality is greatly enhanced to improve efficiency in responding to incidents and accidents. Video clips, live streams and permanent recordings are available in H.264 encoding format, from 1fps to 25-30fps, either in PAL or NTSC.

“Version 6 of the AID software offers performance enhancements that significantly improve traffic operations center performance,” concludes Christian Girardeau, CEO of Citilog.
