MindTree intros automatic traffic counting soln

BANGALORE, INDIA: IT and product engineering services company MindTree Limited on Tuesday announced the launch of an Automatic Traffic Counting and Classification (ATCC) system to conduct round-the-clock traffic pattern study for single/intermediate/two-lane roads.

The ATCC system is designed to address the key challenges faced in deployment of traditional sensor-based counting and classification systems like portability, accuracy and availability of evidence for audit, said a press release.

It is a video-based solution that provides high accuracy in real-time vehicle counting and classification, operating on a 24 x 7 basis, said MindTree.

MindTree claimed that a key differentiator for the ATCC system is its capability to classify a vehicle in up to nine different categories. The system captures an image snapshot for every vehicle that is counted and classified, ensuring the integrity of data and reports. ATCC data collected is tamper-proof ensuring that the reports cannot be deleted, modified or altered by any user.
