Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

Does the box read number plates or film drivers?

No. No plate is read, no face is recognised: the only images that leave the box are short H.265 videos at 256×144 pixels, and only anonymous statistics (counts, speeds, vehicle classes) ever leave the box. That is the “GDPR by design” principle.

What exactly does the box measure?

Counting per lane and per direction, the radar speed of every vehicle, its class (pedestrian, cyclist, motorcyclist, e-scooter, unicycle, car, caravan, truck, bus, train, tractor), traffic saturation (jams), noise level and, as an option, air quality (PM1 / PM2.5 / PM10).

What is the measuring range?

The AI camera covers a 42.5° cone reaching 70 m, as shown in the model above; the radar measures the speed of each vehicle in that zone, lane by lane and in both directions.

How is the box installed?

On a simple 60 to 114 mm pole, 2 to 4 m high, with no civil works: a pole clamp and pointing it at the road are enough. Lanes, their direction and their saturation are then identified automatically.

How is it powered?

Three options: a 100 W solar kit with lithium battery (10 days of autonomy without sun), a permanent 220 V mains connection, or a LiFePO4-battery kit recharged from the public-lighting supply (3 days of autonomy).

Is an internet connection needed on site?

No: 4G connectivity is built into the box and the subscription is included; it allows real-time control and continuous data upload to the web portal. Without 4G, the box remains autonomous and is configured on site over WiFi.

How do I access the data?

From the client web portal, in real time and with full history. The box can also send email alerts (SMS as an option) and remotely drive signs or lights through its 3 dry-contact relays. Data is stored in France and secured.

Can the boxes communicate with each other?

Yes: the boxes exchange with each other over 4G and LoRa (long-range radio, no operator needed). One box can thus trigger the relays of another: relieving a neighbouring junction, driving a sign or a light remotely, coordinating several sites along the same road.

What is the warranty?

Standard-exchange warranty for the whole duration of the subscription (1 to 10-year packs), vandalism included up to one exchange per year; solar panel and battery covered for one year. Theft is not covered (see the general terms of sale).
