2 min. Read • Posted 06/02/2022 by Iteris Staff

We are pleased to announce that the New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT) has approved several of Iteris’ smart detection sensors for traffic operations, data collection and ITS applications. The approved products include:

Vantage Next® – A next-generation video detection system that utilizes the latest processors to accurately detect vehicles at the stop bar, as well as bicycles and pedestrians.

VantageRadius® – A high-definition 4D radar technology for stop bar and advance detection of vehicles at the intersection with a built-in camera for intersection monitoring.

Vantage Vector® – An all-in-one sensor that combines the latest video and radar technology for stop bar and advance detection. An ideal sensor for advanced safety, signal performance measures and adaptive control applications.

As with other state Departments of Transportation (DOTs), NMDOT’s diligent product evaluation program is intended to screen, evaluate and approve products and materials to be listed on the state’s approved or qualified products list (APL/QPL). NMDOT’s approval of the three products will allow the products to be implemented across local, county and state projects.

“We are excited to receive NMDOT’s approval of the Vantage Next, Vantage Vector and VantageRadius,” says John Beale, district sales manager for Iteris. “The approvals will provide cities with access to the latest, most advanced detection products available to help them achieve their goals of improving safety and mobility in their communities.”

With over 200,000 sensors deployed worldwide, Iteris offers a comprehensive suite of advanced and reliable detection solutions for intersections of all sizes.

Before the rise of AI-powered detection, we relied on what is now called traditional machine vision (MV). Any technically competent person could set up a processor, download a detection algorithm from the cloud, plug in a video source and start detecting vehicles. These systems have been prevalent over the years and appeared effective, but often relied on an optimal field of view and near-perfect weather conditions. See More >
