Novus Alpha uses GPS technology to determine its proximity to speed cameras
- Novus Alpha displays your current speed whilst in motion
- The Novus Alpha database warns the driver of an approaching speed camera by an initial voice
alert typically at 500 yards.
- Novus Alpha announces and displays the speed limit of the road
- If at 200 yards the vehicle is exceeding the speed limit, Novus Alpha will advise the driver to reduce speed
- Novus Alpha sounds an alert as the vehicle passes the speed camera
Road specific alert versus simple zonal alert explained
Lower cost locators typically use a Simple
Zone method. They advise the driver that
they are approaching a camera by
generating a warning whenever a vehicle
crosses the boundary of a 500 yard circle
centred on the camera position regardless
of the vehicles direction. From the
illustration below it can be seen that there
are many roads within the shaded 500
yard zone and will give rise to the
possibility of many false alerts using the
single activation point method.
Novus Alpha removes false alerts by using a two position
activation method, using an initial activation point and
camera location. Novus Alpha will only generate a
warning when a vehicle passes an activation point and is
driving towards the camera. Should a vehicle be driving
from the opposite direction, the vehicle will not pass the
activation point and no false alarm will be raised. If the
driver joins from a side after the activation point, then
Novus Alpha senses the direction of travel and compares
it with the direction of the speed camera and activation
point and warns the driver of a speed camera ahead if
driving in the direction of the camera.
