An innovative next-generation solution from 2879 Vitronic enables police forces to provide fixed and mobile speed enforcement from a single solution. The 'dual-use' housing system consists of LIDAR (laser-based) technology which captures speeding vehicles on up to three lanes in a single direction.

The first of VITRONIC's pioneering system solutions has been sold to the Lithuanian Roads Administration. Consisting of a standard mobile PoliScanspeed enforcement system and a protective housing, both mobile and stationary speed checks can be carried out. The solution for a state-of-the-art system operates in temperatures between -30°C to +45°C.

The mobile components are mounted in the protective stationary housing. When mobile operation is required they can then be easily removed, transferred to a tripod/vehicle and then reinstalled after mobile surveillance is completed.

The core 3098 Laser Technology provides a multi-lane, multi-vehicle capacity with lane-specific speed detection. This software provides Automated Licence Plate Recognition (ALPR) and creates documents which are valid in a court of law.

  • Luxembourg duty for KiTraffic Plus
    September 28, 2023

    Luxembourg has opted for Kistler’s KiTraffic Plus weigh-in-motion system as it implements new commercial vehicle enforcement to meet the European Union requirements.

    The WIM installation is located on the A6 motorway about 2km from the border with Belgium. Several hundred meters of the road surface were renewed ahead of time so there would be no need to replace the sensors after a few years because of scheduled maintenance. The complete KiTraffic Plus system weighs trucks and delivery vans without interrupting motorway traffic, providing the basis for efficient weight enforcement.
