Iteris’ Vantage® Video Detection Qualified for Operation with McCain’s QuicTrac Adaptive Control System
5/5/2010 -- Enhanced Detection and Tracking Functions Deliver a High Degree of Accuracy--
Santa Ana, Calif. – Iteris, Inc. (NYSE Amex: ITI), a leader in the traffic management market that focuses on the application and development of advanced technologies, today announced that, working in conjunction with the McCain technical service group, Iteris has tailored its video detection algorithms to meet the requirements of McCain’s QuicTrac adaptive control system.
McCain’s QuicTrac adaptive control system, a module of McCain’s QuicNet central control software, recognizes individual vehicles as they pass through an intersection, so the system can accurately count and calculate occupancy and speed. Iteris’ Vantage video detection algorithms were modified to provide the inputs required by the McCain QuicTrac system, such as count and occupancy data from a low mounting height. The McCain and Iteris combined solution for adaptive control has been successfully deployed in the city of San Marcos, CA, with several other agencies planning similar deployments in the near future.
“I am pleased to have been working closely with McCain’s engineering team providing them with a solution to meet their Quic Trac Adaptive Control detection requirements,” stated Mr. Abbas Mohaddes, president and chief executive officer of Iteris. “Iteris continues to work closely with a range of leading companies, such as McCain, to offer video detection for a variety of applications including adaptive control.”
“The flexibility in mounting location, provided by Iteris’ Vantage video detection system, augments the functionality and adaptability of QuicTrac,” added, Bill Brown, vice president of business development of McCain, Inc. “This will allow McCain to offer an easy to install solution to public agencies nationwide while also helping agencies reduce their carbon footprint.”
