Monitoring Equipment

Monitoring software, when paired with other traffic devices such as changeable message signs and speed monitoring equipment, is used for smart work zones in order to improve safety and mobility in and around work zones. Providing the traveling public with real-time information allows a response to traffic conditions such as slowed or stopped traffic ahead. Alternative route information is oftentimes made available giving drivers a choice to avoid congestion. K&S Industries represents leading manufacturers in this cutting-edge technology which provides excellent solutions in order to mitigate traffic congestion for increased roadway user mobility.

The CHIPS software is a patented internet-based system for monitoring desired events or conditions in a plurality of locations and providing corresponding warnings based on such monitored events or conditions; these events or conditions relate to a traffic monitoring system for use on highways to monitor changing traffic conditions and warn motorists of potential traffic problems ahead.

The ability to monitor events at multiple locations and provide immediate information, response or guidance to persons affected by such events is of great interest to traffic controllers. In a typical arrangement, a plurality of traffic sensors are deployed in the area to be monitored in communication with a centrally located computer(s). One or more motorist warning devices are also located at the appropriate pre-selected locations and are also in communication with the centrally located computer(s). The typical sensors gather speed, volume and occupancy through a designated section of the highway; however, CHIPS is not limited to these types of sensors. Bluetooth readers, satellite detection and cellular tracking can be incorporated. CCTV can also be included for visual confirmation of conditions.

Jamlogic Software

With increased traveler and worker safety as the number one goal, JamLogic software analyzes traffic data and provides real-time information to the motoring public, project personnel, agencies, traffic management centers and public websites. The following benefits are realized:

• Cost savings due to reduced incidents
• Better information to the motoring public
• Quicker incident response and improved mobility
• Real-time project visibility
• Data-analysis at your fingertips
• A better understanding of traffic conditions

Features include:

• Interactive list and gps map view of all your
  equipment
• Color coded icons for quick diagnostic
• Custom folders (by projects, customer, etc.)
• Change font size height or width
• Message library
• Message scheduling
• Messages can be displayed to 1 or many signs at once
• Power monitoring
• Communication monitoring
• Device sharing with customers
• Ability to create your own graphics or logo
