Star Systems International (SSI) has implemented a multi-lane free-flow (MLFF) pilot in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, replacing legacy plaza/barrier-based tolling.
The solution - which SSI says "sets the stage" for wider adoption across south-east Asia, was deployed in collaboration with Malaysian payments firm Touch ‘n Go and tolling system provider Sidra.
Retrofitting onto an existing gantry means the pilot results can be validated against actual tolling data: SSI says it achieves 100% vehicle detection and reads 99.98+% of existing legacy toll tags.
The company adds that Sidra's Parsec lane control system "plays a critical role" in integrating SSI's Titan Pro reader and Avior antenna with ANPR cameras and 3D Lidar sensors.
“The Titan Pro and Avior are purposefully designed for multi-lane fast flow applications where vehicles are moving at high-speeds and extreme accuracy is required,” said Stephen Lockhart, CTO of SSI.
“Sidra's Parsec brings out the maximum performance in our technology and acts as a glue that tightly integrates every component into a single, highly responsive tolling ecosystem.”
SSI contends that the pilot "showcases how legacy systems can be modernised without mass disruption, ushering in a smarter, faster, and more efficient future for tolling infrastructure".
