Vehicle detection devices are a critical component of modern Traffic Management Systems, providing real-time monitoring and control to optimise traffic flow and prioritise safety across private developments, commercial facilities, and loading docks.
These devices include EMX ultrasonic vehicle detectors, photoelectric (PE) beams, and inductive loop detectors, each offering unique capabilities for detecting vehicle presence, movement, and speed.
EMX ultrasonic detectors use sound waves to identify vehicles without requiring physical contact, making them ideal for harsh environments or areas where installation of in-ground equipment is challenging.
PE beam sensors provide reliable line-of-sight detection, triggering traffic signals or access control mechanisms when a vehicle passes through a defined area.
Inductive loop detectors offer highly accurate detection of vehicle presence and occupancy, allowing precise control of traffic lights and signal timing.
By integrating these detection technologies with intelligent traffic controllers, Traffic Management Systems can dynamically adjust signal phases, reduce congestion, prevent collisions, and improve overall site safety. Together, these devices ensure that vehicles move efficiently through intersections, parking areas, and controlled access points while minimising the risk of accidents, supporting both operational efficiency and the safety of all road users.
