Geolux, a Croatia-based developer and manufacturer of Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) equipment, has launched a new radar speed sensor.

Developed for traffic applications, Geolux’s new RSS-2-300 is a Doppler radar speed sensor that operates in K-band (24.125GHz or 24.200GHz).

The speed sensor has a vehicle detection range of 1,600ft, and reports a list of all currently detected vehicles more than 20 times per second over RS-232, RS-485 serial and CAN communication interfaces.

Packed in an IP66 aluminium casing, RSS-2-300 operates in an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

The sensor supports ASCII-S and GLX-NMEA serial interface data protocols and has an option to add support for more protocols on customer request.

Geolux CEO Sanja Grubesa said that the company has been designing radar sensors for its OEM partners during the last five years and wanted to leverage its expertise to develop a ready-to-go radar sensor module.

"In addition to standard radar sensor features, our radars include advanced phyTrack signal analysis algorithm, which precisely collects traffic data," Grubesa added.

"Geolux’s new RSS-2-300 is a Doppler radar speed sensor that operates in K-band (24.125GHz or 24.200GHz)."

phyTrack analyses speed of detected vehicles in real time, as well as extract accurate target statistics data such as total vehicle count, road usage and average speed.

The sensor also has optional GPRS module that helps in real-time traffic tracking.

The RSS-2-300 radar speed sensor has been certified to comply with both European (CE) and American (FCC) norms and is appropriate for global operators, the company claimed.

Founded in 2007, Geolux focuses on development and manufacturing of ITS sensor products such as speed radar sensors and IP cameras for traffic supervision.
