Traffic Speed Sensor Applications

While the Traffic Speed Sensor has features that are normally seen in law enforcement Traffic Radar, such as speed locking and Doppler audio output, it is the perfect speed sensor for any application requiring monitoring road traffic speed or speed management in a mobile environment.

Speed Range

Stationary low speed threshold configurable:
1 MPH to 200 MPH (1.6 to 321 KM/H)
12 MPH to 200 MPH (19 to 321 KM/H)

Moving Speed Range

Patrol speed –
Low patrol acquisition threshold configurable:
Standard acquisition of 1 to 90 MPH (8 to 144 KPH), when Patrol Lo Cutoff = Low

Optional acquisition of 20 to 90 MPH (32 to 144 KPH), when Patrol Lo Cutoff = High

Patrol speed, once acquired, will track to 199 MPH (320 KPH)

Opposite lane target speed - 200 MPH Max combined closing speed (321 KPH)
For 5 MPH (8 KPH) patrol speed: 20 MPH to 195 MPH (32 to 313 KPH)
For 70 MPH (112 KPH) patrol speed: 35 MPH to 130 MPH (56 to 209 KPH)

Same lane target speed – Related to patrol speed:
±70% of patrol speed within 5 MPH (8 KPH) of patrol speed
i.e. For 50 MPH: 16→45 MPH and 55→85 MPH
( For 80 KPH: 25→72 KPH and 88→136 KPH) Same lane patrol speed must be greater than 16 MPH (25 KPH).
