What Can it Do?

Intersection Performance Applications

Stop Bar Detection

Wavetronix Systems accurately provide true presence detection of both moving and stopped vehicles at the intersection stop bar. This allows intersections to operate more efficiently, minimizing delays by responding in real-time to the actual traffic conditions.

Protected/Permissive Left Turns

Make left turns safer and more efficient with a system that dynamically manages turn movements and protects left-turning drivers based on demand. Wavetronix Systems detect queued vehicles and call for a protected turn only when it is necessary.

Long Zones

Make intersections more efficient by ensuring that vehicles don’t have to stop at the same intersection twice. Wavetronix Systems detect vehicles from the stop bar to the back of the queue and prevent split failures caused by slow-starting or distracted drivers.

Adaptive Integration

Adaptive intersection control systems require accurate, reliable data. Wavetronix Systems are the perfect partner, providing essential turn-movement counts, arrival profiles and flow data to your adaptive programs.

ATSPM

Performance metrics help you monitor, manage, and improve your intersections. With accurate detections and flexible zone placements, Wavetronix Systems provide the vital data needed for effective ATSPM, including per lane counts, arrival-on-green and arrival-on-red.

Dilemma Zone Protection

Protect drivers in the dilemma zone, where drivers must decide to stop or keep going on a yellow light. Dynamically track vehicle ETA and extend green so that at-risk vehicles make it through the intersection safely.

Truck Priority

Large vehicles, like semis and buses, have a much longer dilemma zone than smaller vehicles. Wavetronix Systems tracks large vehicles up to 900 feet in advance of the intersection to ensure they receive the dilemma zone protection they require.

Queue Reduction

Wavetronix Systems improve intersection efficiency by helping to flush out queued traffic. We begin detecting slow moving traffic hundreds of feet from the stop bar to ensure queues are cleared when traffic flows are heavy.

Temporary to Permanent Detection

Flexible mountings, configurations, and zones make Wavetronix Systems perfect for both short-term and long-term traffic scenarios. Install our system to monitor traffic conditions in a construction zone, then use the same system to monitor the roadway when it’s completed.
