ETTIFOS POSITIONED FOR US V2X MARKET

For years, the US V2X market has been de ned by pilots, demonstrations and early-stage testing. Today, that conversation is beginning to shift. With connected mobility initiatives gaining federal backing and agencies preparing for broader implementation, attention is increasingly turning towards technologies capable of supporting deployment at scale.

Here in Detroit, Ettifos is focusing on the practical realities of bringing V2X deployment into real-world environments. Rather than positioning connectivity as a future concept, the company is aligning its solutions with the operational challenges agencies and deployers face today — from infrastructure integration and procurement requirements to interoperability and scalability.

Responding to these evolving market demands, Ettifos is showcasing V2X-AIR, the company’s compact, BABA-compliant aftermarket V2X device designed to extend connected vehicle capabilities across existing eets. Developed to meet current Build

America, Buy America requirements, the device supports federally funded projects while helping agencies reduce sourcing and compliance delays.

Ettifos believes aftermarket connectivity will play an increasingly important role as cities and transportation authorities seek practical ways to expand connected environments beyond newly manufactured vehicles. By enabling broader participation across public safety eets, maintenance vehicles and commercial operators, deployment can move faster and at greater scale.

e company is also highlighting its broader V2X ecosystem, including roadside units, onboard units and software solutions designed around interoperability and evolving C-V2X deployment frameworks.

As the US market moves closer to large-scale implementation, Ettifos sees the industry entering a more execution-focused era — one where deployment readiness may matter as much as innovation itself.

SEE INCIDENTS FASTER WITH SITUATIONAL AWARENESS

NoTra ic is showcasing Situational Awareness through Mobility OS, delivering secure access to intersection video for faster incident visibility and improved interagency coordination. As agencies and law enforcement work to enhance road safety, incident detection and data visibility, timely access to reliable video has become critical.

Situational Awareness enables agencies to retrieve intersection footage remotely, scan broad time ranges, focus on specific moments, and select the video quality that best suits their bandwidth and operational requirements. Teams can access footage without requiring additional hardware or on-site retrieval, while maintaining workflows that store no personally identifiable information (PII). The system makes it easier for cities to respond with confidence. From minor incidents to major emergencies, timely access to intersection video helps teams coordinate quickly, investigate e iciently, and provide the public with the level of service they expect.

Additionally, attendees are invited to join NoTra ic and Tapco at O the Clock tomorrow (Thursday) at 6.30 pm at Detroit’s historic Grand Trunk Pub for an evening of conversation, food and drinks with transportation professionals.. Booth 3001 www.notra ic.com/mobility-store/

CISCO AIMS TO UNIFY FRAGMENTED SYSTEMS

Many road agencies are currently hindered by significant technology debt, inflexible legacy infrastructure, and rising cybersecurity risks. That is the view of Cisco, which says that updating roadway operations is essential to unlock the full potential of AI-driven tra ic management and connected vehicle systems.

Agencies must pivot toward a modernised, resilient foundation, the company thinks, adding that it provides the “unified, end-to-end architecture necessary to replace fragmented systems”.

The company’s integrated stack combines ruggedised hardware - including industrial switches, routers and access points - with advanced so ware intelligence.

Cisco says its Cyber Vision provides the real-time visibility to secure industrial assets, while ThousandEyes delivers comprehensive network observability to ensure cloud-based management systems remain resilient, and Splunk provides insight into machine data.

Enabling Next-Generation V2X with iNET

As transportation agencies prepare for a more connected future, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology is becoming a critical part of modern mobility. Parsons is here to highlight how its iNET platform helps make that future possible by giving agencies a scalable, centralised way to manage and monitor growing V2X ecosystems.

Designed to support next-generation connected

infrastructure, iNET brings together roadside devices, communications systems, and operational data into one uni ed platform. is gives operators real-time visibility into system health, device status, and network performance, helping agencies maintain reliability and respond more quickly to issues as V2X deployments expand.

iNET also helps agencies move beyond fragmented

infrastructure management. With cloud-based architecture, performance analytics, and a scalable design, the platform supports more e cient operations while creating a stronger foundation for connected and automated mobility. Agencies can use iNET to oversee complex V2X environments, improve situational awareness, and make smarter decisions

based on real-time insights. As V2X adoption accelerates, agencies increasingly rely on an intelligent platform to manage the full ecosystem. Parsons says that iNET is built to meet that need, helping transportation providers modernise operations, strengthen system performance, and support safer, more e cient travel.

SUSTAINABILITY THROUGH RELIABLE AUTOMATION

Road infrastructure owners, such as Departments of Transport or Corridor Road Infrastructure Owners, depend on robust weigh station systems to safeguard their assets.

South Africa-headquartered Fischer Consulting (Fishercons) is here in Detroit to showcase how its Trafman automation solution o ers dependable results.

The primary function is static scale overload control, precisely measuring truck weights during stops to enforce regulations,

mandate load reductions within weight limits, and issue overload fines. This approach ensures compliance, minimises road wear, and enhances safety for all road users.

Fischercons’ Trafman weighin-motion (WIM) technology then builds on this by assessing weights as trucks pass, maintaining workflow e iciency without delays. With over 95% accuracy, it delivers real-time data to regulators and operators, supporting smooth operations. Additionally, integration with

weigh station bypass programmes allows eligible trucks to skip inspections, saving up to 10 minutes per stop and go. This reduces fuel consumption and improves driver satisfaction for transport companies, while o icers can refine enforcement priorities.

Trafman operates across multiple road corridors, from Ghana to South Africa, o ering a robust solution to reducing overload-related damage to boost road safety and resilience. By preserving road integrity, it

underpins inter-African trade, driving regional development.

Globally proven, Trafman balances safety, e iciency, coste ectiveness, and sustainability for a resilient transport corridor network.

Fischer Consulting o ers the from full turnkey construction and operation solutions down to only weigh station location planning consulting work or weigh station automation packaged as so ware-as-a-service.

Rekor weighs benefits of virtual road reality

At the ITS America 2026 Conference & Expo in Detroit, Rekor will be highlighting its Virtual Weigh in Motion (VWiM) capabilities

e company’s VWiM system detects overweight vehicles in real-time tra c, focusing solely on correctly identifying trucks which need inspection – which also means compliant carriers can stay on the move, all while improving road safety for everyone. For agencies, the prize of VWiM is continuous Weigh in Motion coverage and accurate detection of trucks running illegally – but, crucially, without most of the costs associated with traditional truck weigh stations

“Weigh in Motion is historically a standard station set-up, with bricks and mortar,” begins Terry Robinson, Rekor general manager (right). “Virtual Weigh in Motion takes that same concept, applies AI technology and other parts to it, and makes it exible. So we’re not spending more money, per se, we’re adding avour to those existing sensors.”

e infrastructure is already bought and paid for, it’s in the road, and VWiM allows agencies to take more advantage of it. “ e biggest thing is we’re able to take the exact same platform that you have at a current weigh station and make it virtual,” a rms Rekor strategic business development manager Carlos Ortiz (left).

“ e VWiM concept allows agency partners to further expand their current programme with their enforcement partners in the state - so we’re expanding not just the technology aspect, but the relationships and the communications between agencies.”

As well as expanding enforcement coverage, VWiM also provides DoTs and other agencies with more information. “It also improves the e ciency of an o cer during his work day,” insists Robinson.

“He’s not standing there waiting at some place, he’s actively monitoring things. VWiM allows you to see vehicles in real time in the real environment, and it also creates a connected network for enforcement o cers. We can take all the information from all these di erent VWiMs, along with their permanent weigh stations, and bring them together for a whole network and see a bigger, broader picture of what’s going on in the real world.”

O cers see live WiM data such as individual axle weights and gross vehicle weights on a laptop or tablet; those vehicles exceeding state weight thresholds can be intercepted after they pass a WiM site. e same data and images are accessible to

enforcement personnel at xed facilities. In other words, you are not just getting a picture of truck tra c on the approach to existing physical weigh stations – you have a connected network which creates much broader and e ective enforcement corridors.

“We’re able to provide, in a very concise, organised and uid fashion to agencies an overview of that truck as it passed by –whether there are any known violations, whether it may be overweight, based on the vehicle class, the axle counts, you name it,” says Ortiz. “AI-powered camera technology means you’re getting a full overview of what it looks like in real time.”

For Robinson, road safety is the key to it all. “I’m a safety guy by heart,” he says. “So, all those tools we’ve developed, working with our partners, actually help not only with VWiM, but with everything. I want to see safer roadways. We’re taking that existing infrastructure and going, hey, you’re not having to bake a whole new cake here: the recipe is good, we’re just going to add a few things to it to make it better for you.”

An opportunity to experience Raven Connected and StreetRep

Raven Connected is here to showcase how it closes the loop between vehicles and infrastructure. Attendees can explore stationary management demos, where the management interface provides total operational visibility and turns a eet into a virtual inspection crew. Outdoor ride-along demos are also available, allowing visitors to join the team for a live experience and see rst-hand how the in-cab StreetRep system lets drivers “see” around corners using interoperable V2X data connections.

As Raven points out, public agencies face a growing challenge: managing vast, ageing networks while striving for Vision Zero safety goals and competing for budgets. Traditionally, eet telematics and infrastructure monitoring have operated in silos, leaving critical data stranded in

separate departments. Raven Connected changes that narrative by providing a uni ed ecosystem that turns any vehicle into an active participant in the smart city network.

At its core, Raven is an extensible platform combining four critical layers — AI video telematics, interoperable V2X connectivity, driver situational awareness via StreetRep, and automated AI-based infrastructure monitoring — into a virtuous cycle of connected data. is enables real-time hazard detection, including damaged signs, potholes, and unpermitted work zones. With integrations such as Esri ArcGIS, public agencies can bene t from Raven while working within existing work ows. Booth 4022 www.ravenconnected.com

Truck Parking

Truck parking shortages and unsafe parking behavior remain persistent challenges across freight corridors and inside communities. Public agencies and freight stakeholders need reliable, systemwide insights into where, when, and how long trucks are parked.

Insights from INRIX Truck Parking enable transportation agencies and fleet stakeholders to move beyond anecdotal evidence toward data-driven actions based on parking demand and behavior.

IQSIGHT’S REAL-TIME SOLUTIONS

IQsight, formerly Bosch Video Systems, will demonstrate how AI-enabled video cameras have evolved beyond traditional monitoring to function as multipurpose roadway sensors that detect events and capture rich data on roadway activity. e company’s video-as-a-sensor solutions detect, classify and count pedestrians and vehicles, and trigger real-time alerts for safety risks, such as vehicles travelling in the wrong direction.

Cost-e ective

With the introduction of the Data Fusion cloud service, transportation authorities can access aggregated road usage data captured by intelligent video sensors. Data that includes vehicle types, counts by lane, direction and speed is presented in intuitive dashboards that support more informed decisionmaking.

e highly accurate data also enables digital twin applications, where virtual

models mirror real-world tra c conditions.

Delivering a comprehensive view of activity at intersections and along corridors, the data supports decision-making for enhancements that improve safety, optimise ow and reduce overall roadway risk.

rough partner integrations, complete intersection solutions enable camera-based stop-bar detection to trigger signal changes. AI-enabled video

sensors from IQsight achieve 99% accuracy for vehicle presence at stop bars and more than 95% for real-time event detection.

To further support ITS deployments, IQsight will also share its plans for Buy America compliance for projects funded through the Federal Highway Administration, helping simplify procurement for infrastructure programmes Booth 5009

vehicle detection with no cloud costs

ITS Plus is here to promote how it o ers coste ective vehicle detection and data using multiple camera configurations: analogue or digital, single approach, wide-angle multiapproach, or 360° single cameras. This works with any existing configuration a user might have, as well as during their transition to the company’s cameras.

In addition to accurate stop bar and advance detection for signal actuation — verified through a third-party evaluation by Texas A&M

Transportation Institute — the system provides counts by classification for 18 di erent road user types, including separate motorcycle, bicycle, and pedestrian identification. Furthermore, the ITS Plus Thunder processor can deliver significant analytics for turning movement counts, near-miss analysis, and a host of other parameters.

This performance holds up even in extremely poor video conditions, including fog, dust, glare, and shadows. Thunder’s

so ware, data collection, and analysis are entirely local, with no required cloud access or associated costs. All future updates are included in the initial purchase price, and there are no long-term subscription or support costs. ITS Plus states that its direct-from-themanufacturer model allows the company to o er this at the lowest price in the industry while providing direct support and service. Booth 5

UMOVITY HIGHLIGHTS INTEGRATED MOBILITY OPERATING SYSTEM

Econolite & PTV Group, together as Umovity, are here to showcase how their Mobility Operating System solutions help agencies connect planning, operations, and real-time intelligence to ensure roadway users get to their destinations safely and on time.

Econolite’s cloud-native Centracs Mobility ATMS, the only platform with thirdparty SOC 2 Type II, SOC 3 attestation, and TX-Ramp certi cation, is being featured

and demonstrated throughout the conference. A key focus is Mobility’s “Metrics at Matter” capability, which translates tra c data into clear, defensible performance metrics tied to safety, mobility, and operational e ciency. ese insights help agencies communicate outcomes, support funding requests, and guide modernisation decisions. Econolite is also demonstrating digital twin and predictive capabilities,

illustrating the deeper integration between Econolite and PTV Group.

Econolite will also demonstrate data fusion with Ouster lidar, combining video and lidar inputs to enhance multimodal awareness and roadway safety.

Technology is replacing technology

Adoption of increasingly technologically advanced ITS systems and the use of artificial intelligence is creating challenges specific to this age. In fact, it is making redundant some systems that are becoming more advanced. At least it raises questions about their deployment, according to speakers in the conference session Perspectives on Tra ic Management Centres of the Future.

For example, dynamic or variable message signs, said Sheryl Bradley, TSMO (transportation systems management and operations) programme director for the Eastern Transportation Coalition that covers

20 US states and Washington DC. With rapid development of vehicle-to-everything (V2X), what purpose will they serve in even 10 years if drivers are getting this information in the car long before they may pass a variable message sign? Never forget that safety is still at the core of everything a TMC does and will do in the future, said Shawn Wilson, senior vice president for intelligent mobility and national highway business leader with WSP USA. Incident response remain central to any TMC development. However, the trend is to move from response to prevention of crashes and

incidents. AI now provides data about what happens just before and just a er an incident and learns from that.

AI allows for new data types, such as hard braking, weather patterns and road surface conditions to be thrown into the analytical mix.

As AI develops, it is getting better at automatically detecting and validating incidents, noted Ron Katzir, chief technical o icer at Valerann. AI can learn from this and apply the parameters to future incidents. As Wilson noted, AI will note replace people. But it will replace people who do not embrace it.

CITILOG TURNS PTZ CAMERAS INTO AN AUTOMATIC INCIDENT DETECTION NETWORK

Citilog (a Sensys Networks brand) is here to preview a major expansion of its Automatic Incident Detection (AID) architecture with PTZAnalytics – enabling the tens of thousands of PTZ traffic cameras already installed on North American roadways to be upgraded to always-on intelligent safety devices.

For over a decade, Citilog’s AID has been fully compatible with PTZ cameras that support preset positions. The new PTZAnalytics feature now extends that capability to legacy traffic cameras that lack presets entirely - or deployments where position feedback is architecturally blocked.

The breakthrough is automatic, AI-based calibration. Standard AID requires a defined road surface “mask” tied to a known camera position. PTZ-Analytics eliminates that dependency by observing realtime traffic flow to dynamically infer the travelled roadway. In peak traffic conditions, this learning phase takes just a few minutes. Once operational, the camera detects stopped vehicles, pedestrians, and

debris within the automatically generated zone. When an operator moves the camera, the system reinitialises and adapts to the new scene.

“The infrastructure is already there - poles, cameras, communications,” says Bill

Weber, VP of sales. “This is a small software investment that puts that entire network to work for Vision Zero, identifying dangerous situations automatically and alerting operators so faster responses can save lives.”

Applied Concepts goes incognito

Stealth is the goal for ITS America exhibitor Applied Concepts (formerly Stalker Radar and Stalker Street Dynamics) as it showcases a new covert traffic data collector, a small, incognito device that can track speeders and other traffic violators.

About the size of your palm, the Traffic Data Collector 2 can be installed overhead on gantries or on the side of the road on other traffic infrastructure assets for up to eight days unattended.

Data is collected through the Street Dynamics Web Portal where operators can

monitor traffic conditions across multiple devices on a map.

“It’s really about stealth,” said Don Horen, national sales manager for Stalker Radar.

“Let’s say an agency gets wind of a speeder who comes through the same intersection every day at eighty miles per hour. They can install this device, track the speed, gather more information and then send out law enforcement.”

Applied Concepts is also demonstrating its line of speed and messaging signs on the showroom floor, including the company’s

most maneuverable product – the new EZ Speed. Launched less than a year ago, the small, compact trailer can function as a speed sign, messaging sign and traffic data collector all in one unit to help operators better manage traffic during temporary events such as concerts, festivals and sporting events.

According to Horen, several hundred EZ Speed trailers are currently deployed across the U.S. Booth 6008 www.stalkerradar.com

LEDSTAR DELIVERS BOUTIQUE DMS SOLUTIONS

Gordie Howe International Bridge. MDOT’s I-94. Central Florida Expressway’s Flex Lanes. Florida’s I-4. Tennessee Smartway. VDOT I-66. Illinois Tollway. GDOT NaviGator. Seattle, Hampton Roads, and Miami Tunnels…

Ledstar is here to highlight how it has provided more than 3,000 NTCIP-compliant dynamic message signs on these projects alone. e company says that each system is unique in design and DMS type, but the distinction goes further: the DMS didn’t come from a catalogue. Each client had its own con guration and feature requirements, speci c to its systems.

By leveraging standard components and exible design, Ledstar has been delivering custom products at scale for more than 35 years.

e client maintains control over the design while Ledstar provides custom solutions, aligning concepts with results. Adaptability and legendary durability on large, complex systems are why Ledstar is

a trusted name on so many ATMSs across North America, with manufacturing facilities in both the USA and Canada.

Ledstar also brings a customsolution mindset to innovation, with industry rsts such as

Smart Driver modules, system redundancy, and lifetime power supplies.

Another industry rst: Ledstar recently installed a 10mm pitch high-resolution, walk-in DMS (13’H x 36’W) for Orlando International Airport – a radically new design, and Ledstar delivered.

Pixel pitch for outdoor DMS ranges from the standard 20mm down to 6mm for very highresolution applications.

Ultimately, Ledstar’s mass customisation bridges the gap between client concepts/ designs and real-world availability. In doing so, Ledstar says it provides customisation as a standard, driving innovation at scale. Visitors can see Ledstar’s 10mm sign in the outdoor demonstration area. www.ledstar.com
