Spotlight on SCANLOOP: How It Works and Its Benefits
We're excited to share a bit about one of the standout services we have here at SCANOR – the SCANLOOP. If you’ve ever wondered how we keep traffic flowing smoothly and safely, this is a big part of the answer!
What is SCANLOOP?
SCANLOOP is our advanced induction loop system designed to detect vehicles at intersections and other key points on the road. It’s like having an extra set of eyes on the road, constantly monitoring traffic conditions.
How Does It Work?
Here’s the cool part: SCANLOOP uses a preformed loop installed under the pavement. When a vehicle passes over the loop, it creates a magnetic field disturbance that the system detects. This information is then sent to traffic control systems, which adjust signal timings to optimise flow and reduce congestion.
Benefits of SCANLOOP
1. Enhanced Traffic Flow:
By providing real-time data, SCANLOOP helps keep traffic moving efficiently, reducing delays and keeping your commute smoother.
2. Improved Safety:
Accurate vehicle detection means better signal timing, which reduces the likelihood of accidents at intersections.
3. Cost-Effective:
SCANLOOP is durable and reliable, requiring minimal maintenance, which saves time and money in the long run.
4. Environmentally Friendly:
By reducing stop-and-go traffic, SCANLOOP helps lower vehicle emissions, contributing to a cleaner environment.
Let’s keep our roads safe and efficient with SCANLOOP!
