Solar electricity renders additional power supply lines unnecessary and makes the technology self-sufficient, an outstanding advantage of this technology. “In times of bad weather or unexpected failures accumulator and fuel cell are replacing the sun”, explains Dr. Volker Wilkening, CEO of Funkwerk plettac. “The cameras allow for mainly failure-free supply”. A total of 105 webcams has been installed in 58 track sections throughout Baden-Wuerttemberg. The cameras deliver one picture per minute to a central web server. This groundbreaking use of camera technology allows economic realtime traffic monitoring at important crossroads for immediate reaction as needed.
