- New best-in-class radar detection solution strengthens Econolite’s position as the industry leading sensor solutions provider
- Radar sensor with built-in HD camera for visual validation
- New Hub with easy-to-use design and LCD touchscreen display
Econolite, a trusted leader in intelligent traffic management solutions and part of Umovity, announced today that it has introduced the EPIQ RADAR sensor solution. EPIQ RADAR provides a best-in-class radar detection solution, delivering superior traffic detection, accuracy, and reliability. A key feature includes a built-in 1080p camera (30 FPS) with low-light sensitivity for visual validation.
“The EPIQ RADAR sensor brings in cutting-edge FMCW radar technology with a 110-degree field of view and up to 900 feet of detection, requiring only two sensors to fully cover all approaches at most intersections,” said Sunny Chakravarty, Econolite’s Vice President, Engineering. “It’s ideally suited to address diverse intersection geometries with reliable detection, supporting a variety of dynamic traffic control and emerging smart mobility programs to help reduce travel times and traffic congestion, while increasing safety for all roadway users.”
Designed to provide accurate and reliable detection using fewer sensors, EPIQ RADAR is capable of tracking and classifying 128 objects generated from 512 unique detections. With its powerful features, EPIQ RADAR provides lane-by-lane classification, vehicle counts, and travel ETA data, supporting the detection needs for stop bar, advance, departure, bicycles, and pedestrians, and enabling safety-critical applications like mitigation of dilemma zone and red-light running.
The EPIQ RADAR sensor solution consists of two key components: the EPIQ RADAR Sensor with built-in HD camera for visual validation and the EPIQ RADAR Hub. The new Hub provides powerful processing and seamless integration within the traffic cabinet and features an easy-to-use design and an LCD touchscreen display for easy configuration and status monitoring. The complete system also includes an intuitive web interface and remote access management. As with Econolite’s other sensors, EPIQ RADAR integrates seamlessly with Centracs® +Detect for advanced and automated cloud-based data reporting, analytics, and monitoring capabilities.
