How to ensure the safety of users in winter conditions
Winter conditions require significant mobilisation of road-operation teams due to issues such as ice, reduced visibility and heavy snowfall.
Users’ safety is a major challenge for all road operators. It is their responsibility to be fully aware of all the traffic conditions on their networks at all times.
The LACROIX City Solution
- EcoCam
- Solar kit
- Infrared torch
Optional:
- Infrared detector
- Mx4 passive sign support
How it works
EcoCam is a standalone smart camera that works by sending videos or images to the intervention teams over 3G.
Coupled with a small solar panel and incorporating a data connection, the camera has a major advantage that allows it to be installed in the most constrained environments, in terms of energy and telecommunications.
Benefits
- Define and reduce intervention costs
- Use and control video broadcasting
- Share the flow situation with users
- Implement a mobile solution with minimal installation and civil engineering costs
