GATE MANAGEMENT A N D P E R I M E T E R S U R V E I L L A N C E
Gate Access control overview Entry station
Gate Access Control First step in gated community security implementation is the gate management We design professional solutions for RFID short range (Mifare, Proximity) for personal ID and Long Range (EPC-Gen2) vehicle identification using radio waves. Besides we have a unique expertise in the design and implementation of Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) based solution for tag less identification The system can be combined with an entry station having an integrated IP intercom system for communicating with the central security room or security gate office. The entry station can also include the RFID reader, ticket dispenser, fish eye camera for driver face capture and video calling. The IP intercom can also communicate with the an IP telephony system for direct communication with the residents home telephones.
Parking Management System Parking management includes all features of Gate Access Control together with membership and hourly ticket system so that car drivers would pay monthly membership, per day or per hour. Valet Parking system can be included Parking Guidance for car counting and display of available spaces in different zones as well as parking sport Red and Green LED. ANPR system can be provided to capture the number of each parked car and provide customer assistance through a kiosk to type the car plate number and get the exact location of the car in the parking.
Perimeter surveillance Perimeter surveillance can be achieved through the use of IP Megapixel cameras over the fence every distance according to the selected height, lens selection and level of details required. Beside regular video surveillance it is recommended to Video Analytics so that intrusion event would be detected, recorded and an alarm sent to the registered contacts to take immediate action without the need to have a large number of video operators to monitor a large number of cameras. We can also provide a solution based on Radar detection combined with PTZ optical and thermal imaging cameras to detect events at large distances and get the PTZ zoom on the event for clear recording whether optical or thermal. This solution could be recommended for very long distances where regular optical monitoring would not be efficient.
SMART STREET LIGHTING
Street lighting control INTELLIGENT MANAGEMENT IN THE CABINET: Fixed time clock for illumination management. Cabinet monitoring. Consumption monitoring and analysis. INTELLIGENT LIGHT SOURCE MANAGEMENT: Management at each light source: on/off, dimming. Group management of light sources. PERMANENT STREET LIGHTING INSTALLATIONS CONTROL Web solution. Viewing via Google mapping. Centralized installation control. Event monitoring, log and analysis tools. Easy management of alerts/on-call personnel.
Solution Architecture The system is composed of three parts: - the cloud server host, - concentrator(dcu) and - single lamp controller.
How it works Cloud server host is the client s management system, which can remote read DCU s data under different transformer, including configuration parameters, send control commands, collect field lamps status, etc. The DCU is between master station and single lamp controller, uplink communicate with master station through Ethernet, GPRS, downlink communicate with single lamp controller through PLC. Usually one transformer area is equipped with one DCU, the main function is realizing single lamp controller mesh and manage, control command and collect data; the single lamp controller is used to execute system command, receive the command from DCU through low voltage power line, can be carried out on the street lamp/tunnel light dimmer, brightness control, data query and so on, when the street lamp/tunnel light failed, it also can report to DCU automatically.
URBAN TRAFFIC CONTROL
Urban intersection control Urban intersection is a complex mix of events as shown in the image
Urban intersection control We provide our services starting with the traffic model study for the mot efficient intersection design and estimated time plan for the traffic lights. Traffic detection at the intersection is very important and provides the following advantages: Adaptive traffic light control according to the real time traffic flows in each direction Stop line detection for red light violation registration Pedestrian detection for safety signs control Variable messages signs for counters, dynamic speeds and traffic instructions
Intersection control architecture Traffic video sensor (optical or thermal) Non-intrusive video detection traffic sensor: Avoid the road cutting for inductive loop installation. Independent on the quality of the road pavement No need to stop the flow for installation Open Linux based intersection controller: Easy customizable and remotely programmable Integrated ANPR capability for violation capture Synchronize with central server Adaptive control algorithm Surveillance and ANPR cameras PTZ or Fixed bullet surveillance HD cameras Megapixel ANPR cameras

Traffic data collection from intersections
Street digital signage We can help you select the right traffic signal heads and VMS displays and the most economic and efficient vendor.
Signage control The smart signal control as VMS displays can be controlled using the same Intersection controller as it is general purpose and fully customizable.
I NDUSTRIAL SCADA SOLUTIONS
Infrastructure SCADA
Infrastructure SCADA It is obvious that planning and a building a future proof and managed utility networks is a much more economic solution that having to dig and lay cables and tubes after roads and streets are finished. Whether water, waste water and treatment plants or even gas networks we can design the solution based on wired or wireless infrastructure telecommunications. The PLCs, RTUs are provided by standard global partners such as Siemens or Schneider and the SCADA monitoring software can be based on Siemens WinCC or other more open SCADA solutions.
Integrated Siemens infrastructure Siemens provides the complete range of industrial Ethernet including core, distribution and access switches as well as the complete range of controllers including Redundant Master PLC, Remote I/O, PROFIBUS and PROFINET interfaces. It is also important to select the correct Siemens SCADA servers to benefit from integrated PROFINET modules for high availability solution. ET-200M SCALANCE switch S7-400 PLC PROFIBUS OLM
