Vehicle Sensor Theory
IPS Vehicle Detection Sensor provides a reliable and secure detection system which detects the
presence and absence of a vehicle in a public or garage parking space.
The IPS sensor uniquely directs all sensing information via the IPS single or multispace parking
meter cellular communications backbone.
The parking locations weather they are located on a city street or parking structure will detect
whatever is parked over it. This build in an added measure of security not only does it detect
when a vehicle is located at a parking location it will also detect when it is vacant so if a vehicle
is abandon, stolen or has been left on the street somewhere it can be immediately located and
it will time date stamp the actual event.
It will also tell the city workers that have shut down specific parking locations due to either road
work or an event if someone has inadvertently left their vehicle on the street in a restricted
area.
The sensor because it is mounted in either an asphalt or concrete street has a battery life of 3 -
5 years depending on detection activity. To maximize and conserve battery life the sensor
remains dormant until it actually senses a vehicle at which time it will wake up to detect
whatever is covered up by it and relays the information or data to the meter and then returns
to dormant state until the next event which is when the vehicle leaves.
The IPS sensor uses multiple sensing technologies combining RF as well as IR to detect large
metal objects.
Its unique design provides the most accurate data on the sensor market and allows for quick
installation and servicing.
