Technology is developing very rapidly, the same goes if we talk about systems to control speed on the highway or driver behavior in the car. In Spain, DGT has, according to the latest Coyote Radar Observatory, 2,010 fixed radars, 440 traffic light cameras, 243 belt cameras and mobile cameras, as well as 167 parts radars.

But we also just met other systems that sooner or later may reach the path we like noise and weight radar.

But this concerns us now even more. One of the busiest roads in Devon and Cornwall, England, has become a testing ground for a new generation of radar, and its success was immediate.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology. the latest generation has detected almost 300 drivers using a cell phone while driving or traveling without wearing a seat belt within the first three days of operation. Overall, a new camera is detected 117 cell phone violations and 180 seat belt violations.

This is what the new radar with artificial intelligence looks like

Implemented by road safety technology company Acusensus, in partnership with Vision Zero South West, This radar uses artificial intelligence to identify violations related to cell phone and seat belt useand this is the first time this system has been used in the UK.

Of course, they weren’t careful at all. Is about a series of cameras, so technically not radar, is located at the top of a stringer suspended from a telescopic pole.

Thanks to their advanced technology with artificial intelligence, this radar They can monitor drivers in vehicles and fine them for not wearing a seat belt, driving with a cell phone in hand, or traveling with more people than permitted.. And also able to monitor up to six lanes.

Tickets are sent home automatically

But what difference from camera used in Spain to monitor use of cell phones or seat belts Those are two things. The first is its location, and it doesn’t have to be fixed. They can be mounted anywhere so drivers don’t know where they will be.

And the second and most important thing is that They can send the fine directly to your door. In Spain, cameras record traffic and these images are then sent to the Automated Complaints Treatment Center in León. where the software analyzes it and filtering out items that may prove to be violations. The complaint is then reviewed manually and if a violation is found, the complaint will be processed.

In the case of artificial intelligence, it can analyze images quickly and decide whether a violation has occurred or not. This way, the agent sends the sanction directly to your home.
