The Traffic detection module is used to determine the general characteristics of the traffic in general and each vehicle in particular.

The Traffic detection module has the following functions:

1. Determining the total number of vehicles that passed in each lane.
2. Saving the date and time of vehicle registration.
3. Determining the class of the vehicle.
4. Calculating the total number of vehicles of each class.
5. Determining the speed of the vehicle using the video image processing algorithm.
6. Determining the speed of the vehicles moving in a specific lane.
7. Determining the average speed of traffic.
8. Determining the average speed of vehicles in the following classes:
   1. passenger car;
   2. truck shorter than 12 m;
   3. truck longer than 12 m;
   4. bus.
9. Determining the distance of up to 255 m between the vehicles.
10. Determining the road congestion.
11. Registration of violations of certain traffic rules.
    1. exceeding the speed limit;
    2. entering an oncoming lane;
    3. stopping violations;
    4. backing run;
    5. driving forbidden types of vehicle.
12. Detecting traffic jams.

You can use the following tools to create reports on results of the detection tool operation:

1. WEB Report System PSIM module. This module isn't included in the Auto PSIM distribution package and must be installed separately (see WEB Report System PSIM).
2. The Traffic Monitor object. Configuration of this object is described in The Traffic Monitor interface object setup. Working with the Traffic Monitor is described in Operator's Guide.
