TMT
The TMT radar detects vehicles travelling at a speed above the selected threshold. It activates a light signal when a vehicle passes by, wakes up a light on standby or calls a red phase in the context of traffic lights operating in “sanction red”.
Compact and lightweight, it can be installed quickly, without civil engineering works or traffic stops.
Operation and strengths
The TMT closes or opens a dry contact when it detects a vehicle travelling at a speed above the selected threshold in its detection area. This contact can control an automatic control system for traffic lights, luminaires, fixed or variable message light panels…

Use cases
- Traffic lights:
- sanction red
- green wave
- Activation of solar-powered “too fast” or “school, careful” signals only when a vehicle is approaching at an excessive speed in order to
- avoid the habituation effect when facing a permanently activated panel
- achieve substantial energy savings
