interesting stuff
seems like it would take a lot of 'detectable' energy to monitor 32 vehicles in 4 lanes

They call it "radar", like most speed measuring devices, but I would be interested to know what is the principle this unit operates on. Looking at the video I don't think any radar is involved here. Looks more like an image recognition software.
EDIT: true StlouisX50, they are definitely using image recognition to label vehicles, but it is not certain if that is a prime method of measuring speed. I have seen those little icons jump all over the vehicle in the vid which doesn't suggest a very reliable speed detection that way.

but the system still does not tell them it is the blue Chevy in the right lane that is speeding. It will tell them the speed of 32 targets but they still have to figure out which one is which. It would be fun taking this to court and get the police to explain how they determine which of the 32 cars was speeding.

here is the Cordon Specifications sheet. http://peakgainsystems.com/PDF/Cordon-spec-sheet.pdf
Under Principles of Operation, there is an area covered by a "radar beam" and another by the camera. Someone should call the number at the bottom of the page to see if they can find anything else out on how it works
imagine that mounted on police cruiser, it really looks like a permanent stationary system. Now I can see how it can determine which vehicle was going what speed. It is using video recognition system and the position in the frame of view and the returning path of the radar to determine which car is going which speed. This is advance military type radar and video system.
Rest assure our police departments are too cheap to deploy a system like this in a patrol car. These may show up in automatic ticketing systems though. I bet the UK will be the first to use this.
Would this system rely on the front tag of a vehicle? .
If you only had one tag I wonder if it would keep the vehicle in"memory" tell it could get a view of the rear tag.
Interesting either way....
