Tattile launches Rigel real-time traffic analyser

First published in Intertraffic Innovation News - April 30, 2020

Tattile has launched the innovative Rigel embedded plug-in software tool as an extension suitable for the company’s double head ANPR (ALPR) cameras. It enables traffic analysis features providing an all-in-one solution for reading plates, traffic monitoring, incident detection, traffic data collection and smart city initiatives.

The Rigel real-time traffic analyser, totally based on artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms, can manage alarms and notifications; report plate numbers, and a range of traffic events directly to the aggregating software running on a remote server. Traffic events include stopped vehicle; slow-down and queue; wrong-way detection; pedestrian detection; smoke and low visibility; lost cargo; traffic density; and vehicle counting

The aggregating software works as a forwarder of all the collected events to all third party systems, like VMS or SCADA platforms, supporting standard protocols. It integrates with the most commonly used video management and alerting systems, allowing the control room to have a quick overview of all traffic events and take action accordingly.

The software can work in different scenarios, either in approaching or receding traffic, day and night and on multiple lanes. All add-on software can be uploaded even if the camera is already installed.

The launch of the Rigel software tool follows the recent launch of two other software add-ons – the Tattile Axle Counter for ETC applications and the new BCCM (Brand, Class, Colour and Model recognition) algorithm which is based on AI running inside an ANPR camera.
