The Wavetronix Stop Bar detection system is part of the broader Wavetronix
Intersection Detection System which includes certified systems for advance
(dilemma zone) and mid-block (system control) detection. The Wavetronix
Intersection Detection System has been designed to simply integrate the reliable
presence detection data of SmartSensor Matrix, with the superior passage detection
data of SmartSensor Advance, and high-quality count data of SmartSensor HD in
order to control signalized intersections more safely and efficiently than ever before.
Contact your authorized Wavetronix representative to learn how these packages can
be cost-effectively bundled together.
In addition the complete line of Click! products and Click! Cabinet Systems offers a
connectivity and integration solution for virtually every intersection application.
Contact Wavetronix technical services for assistance with your application specific
integration questions.
Selecting a Mounting Location
Consider the following guidelines when selecting a mounting location for each
SmartSensor Matrix unit:
 Corner radar – SmartSensor Matrix is a corner radar with a panoramic
90°degree 100-foot view. The corner radar vision device detects in traffic in
a two-dimensional matrix to provide industry leading stop bar detection
performance. The sensor’s mounting location should be selected so that all
stop bar detection zones on an approach are within 6 to 100-foot radial
distance. Figure I.4 presents a top down view of a corner radar mounted to
detect the stop bar on a four lane intersection approach. The corner radar
device uses its radar vision to automatically determine the location and
orientation of lanes and stop bars within its field-of-view. It then detects
vehicle presence on a lane-by-lane basis.
Note
The Wavetronix Intersection Detection System provides a Command and Control
Bridge for management of all connected SmartSensor and Click! devices. This
Command and Control Bridge is completely separate from the dedicated
channels used for communication of contact closure detection calls in real-time.
