The problem

Blackspots move, and a fixed gantry cannot follow them. A mobile traffic enforcement system (MTES) fits a camera, radar and processor to a patrol vehicle, so officers can enforce speed and safety rules at blackspots and changing locations without building a gantry. It detects violations while the vehicle is parked or moving, at night with infrared, and in rain and fog.

A 4D Doppler radar tracks up to 120 vehicles across lanes at speeds over 200 km/h for overspeeding. The camera also detects no helmet (rider and pillion), no seatbelt (driver and front passenger), triple riding and non-standard number plates, and where the authority has access, documents are checked against the vehicle registration and licence databases (Vahan and Sarathi). The officer in the vehicle reviews each detection on a local dashboard, corrects the plate reading if needed and submits it; a second officer approves it on the cloud dashboard before the fine (e-challan) is issued. Every officer signs in with personal credentials, so each action is on record.

How it works

In 6 steps

01Check the vehicleEach vehicle model is checked before fitting: roof mounting, cable routes, power, and space for the processing unit and battery.
02FitA roof-mounted evidence camera with infrared, a 4D Doppler radar, an on-board processing unit and a network router are fitted to the patrol vehicle. Battery backup covers remote areas and unstable power.
03Start a sessionThe officer starts a session with one click and the GPS location is logged. The system detects violations whether the vehicle is parked or moving, at night with infrared, and, as the manufacturer states, in rain and fog.
04DetectThe radar tracks up to 120 vehicles across lanes at speeds over 200 km/h for overspeeding. The camera also detects no helmet (rider and pillion), no seatbelt (driver and front passenger), triple riding and non-standard number plates. Where the authority has access, documents can be checked against the vehicle registration and licence databases (Vahan and Sarathi) where the enforcing authority has authorised access.
05Review in the vehicleThe officer reviews each detection on a local dashboard, opened on a laptop over Wi-Fi, corrects the plate reading if needed and submits it.
06Approve centrallyA second officer reviews and approves the violation on the cloud dashboard before the fine (e-challan) is issued. Every officer signs in with personal credentials, so each action is on record.

In the vehicle

Built into the patrol vehicle

The camera and radar sit on the roof. The processing unit, network router and battery backup go inside, and each vehicle model is checked before fitting.

Configuration

Kit for one patrol vehicle

One mobile enforcement kit fitted to one patrol vehicle. The vehicle model is checked before fitting and the kit is priced on request.

Illustrative configuration. Models, quantities and installation are confirmed for your site before an order or quotation.

Installation

Quoted after a site survey, or carried out by your own installer.

Roof mounting of the camera and radar
Cable routes and power connection in the vehicle
Fitting the processing unit and battery
Setting up officer accounts on the local and cloud dashboards

Assumptions

One kit per patrol vehicle, fitted after the vehicle model is checked
The in-vehicle dashboard runs on a laptop over Wi-Fi
Two-level review: the officer in the vehicle, then a second officer on the cloud dashboard

Prerequisites, not in this configuration

Patrol vehicles available for fitting
Mobile data plan for each vehicle
Officer accounts and the review hierarchy

Not included

The patrol vehicle itself
Mobile data plan
Laptop for the in-vehicle dashboard, unless the quotation includes one
Integration with fines and registration systems beyond the scope agreed for the project

Approval

A second officer approves

The officer in the vehicle reviews each detection and submits it. A second officer approves it on the cloud dashboard before the fine (e-challan) is issued.

Hardware

Vehicle kit and dashboards

The system is quoted after each vehicle model is checked. The kit is supplied as one system per patrol vehicle, with the camera, radar, processing unit, router and dashboards.

Questions to ask

How many patrol vehicles, and which models? Each model is checked before fitting for roof mounting, cable routes, power and space for the processing unit and battery.
Which violations do you need to enforce: overspeeding, helmets, seatbelts, triple riding, non-standard plates, or all of them?
Who reviews in the vehicle, and who approves centrally? The review hierarchy is set up with the officer accounts.
Do you have access to the vehicle registration and licence databases for document checks?
Should approved violations go straight to your fines system? Integration is scoped for each project.
Will the vehicles work alongside fixed gantries? If so, EdgeTrack can bring both onto one platform.

The system is priced on request. Request a quote with the number and model of vehicles and the violations you need to enforce. Buying for clients or several sites? Trade accounts and project quotations are available.

Questions

Frequently asked

Does the patrol vehicle have to be parked to enforce?

No. Violations are detected while the vehicle is parked or moving.

How many vehicles can it watch at once?

The 4D Doppler radar tracks up to 120 vehicles across lanes, at speeds over 200 km/h.

Who decides that a fine is issued?

Two officers. The officer in the vehicle reviews each detection and submits it; a second officer approves it on the cloud dashboard before the fine (e-challan) is issued.

Does it work at night or in bad weather?

The camera uses infrared at night, and the manufacturer states the system operates in rain and fog; performance in your conditions is confirmed during commissioning.

Do we need a gantry?

No. The camera, radar and processor are fitted to the patrol vehicle, so enforcement can move to blackspots and changing locations.

Can it check a vehicle's documents?

Yes, where the authority has access to the vehicle registration and licence databases (Vahan and Sarathi).
