SIRRUS COMPLETES TRAFFIC VIDEO CONTRACT WITH DEVON COUNTY COUNCIL
Sirrus, the networked video specialists, has completed a Remote Vision contract with Devon County Council. Sirrus has installed an unusual system using waterproof outdoor IP network cameras to give views of Devon traffic hotspots as part of an expanding traffic management system. In Devon County Council's Marsh Barton location Sirrus solved an awkward physical problem - there was no wide-area network (WAN) access near to the location where these cameras were needed. Sirrus' Business Development Manager Graham Wheeler explained: "We mounted the cameras at the top of a new roadside pole in the chosen location, and connected from there to a nearby council property using IP radio. across a distance of some 300 yards, to a Devon council property where the WAN could be reached. "Pictures from the cameras are routed by IP, directly through the radio 'hop' into Devon's IT infrastructure, and from there to the county's traffic website". Above is a snapshot of the site - click here and choose "Marsh Barton" to go to the actual Devon website. Currently, pictures on the public site only update every few minutes, but could be made live in future using technology like Sirrus' flagship www.trafficland.com live traffic website in Washington DC. Sirrus Remote Vision technology is used in a very wide range of applications, from traffic to production line monitoring, for hygiene and QA control in the food industry, for observing hazardous working enviroments in industry, for security applications, and a host of other uses.
