You Can Run, But You Can’t Hide from New Cordon Multi-Target Photo Radar System
Speed cameras have nailed hundreds of thousands (or is it millions?) motorists all over the globe. Up until now, however, most of them have a weak point: their laser beams can’t track more than one vehicle at a time.
Peak Gain Systems Inc. promises to put an end to this with a new device, named “Cordon multi-target Photo Radar Systemâ€, which eliminates the current systems’ weakness and makes you think twice before exceeding the posted speed limit.
The device, which is very compact and can be mounted almost anywhere making it hard to spot, can focus on a wide-angle view and a close-up of a vehicle’s number plate simultaneously. It can track up to 32 cars (!) on four lanes, targeting their license plates and measuring their speed.
