WavetronixLINDON, Utah—April 03, 2008—The city of Beijing, China, has deployed more than 200 SmartSensor HD units in preparation for the 2008 Summer Olympics. Wavetronix shipped 223 SmartSensor HDs to Beijing, which has installed the sensors on Fifth Ring Road, an important route for access to and from Olympic venues.
Mike Rose, vice president of sales at Wavetronix, says China selected SmartSensor HD because of its ability to accurately detect vehicle volumes and per vehicle speeds.
“HD collects consistently accurate traffic data in high definition,” Rose says. “This project brings the number of SmartSensors in China to over 1000 and marks a significant milestone for high definition radar.”
China officials say the project will be completed before the Olympics begin in August.
