Sensors for Traffic Detection

How does the Comm Manager benefit the driving public?

Why do agencies use the Comm Manager?

What, exactly, is a Comm Manager?

Comm Manager

The Autoscope Vision Comm Manager is a powerful device facilitating remote and local communication to deployed Autoscope Vision sensors. The Vision Comm Manager supports 3-wire-only branch cable connections for up to 8 sensors, interfaces to the optional Vision I/O 24™ module, as well as full 10/100/1000 Ethernet communication to a local laptop or workstation at the Traffic Management Center (TMC).

The Vision Comm Manager is quick and easy to install. A single IP address is all that is required to connect the Vision Comm Manager to personnel at the TMC, enabling collection of traffic data and viewing HD video streams, individually or in a quad display. Detection zones may also be created or modified remotely with this simple network architecture.

Power and communications to Autoscope Vision is managed via the Vision Comm Manager. Vision sensors provide high-performance, high definition vehicle detection and bicycle differentiation, using state-of-the-art algorithms to improve safety, reduce vehicle emissions, and mitigate traffic congestion.
