Camera System Requirements Clause Samples

Camera System Requirements. The camera system shall consist of the camera, flash, detector system, keypad, support systems, interconnecting cable and conduit system, and associated electronics. Preference will be given to a camera system that utilizes non-intrusive detection and that locates all camera assemblies and supports outside of the traveled way such that critical repairs and preventative maintenance can be completed without lane closures. • The camera unit shall be portable and easily removable from the cabinet housing. • The camera lenses shall be interchangeable. • The camera unit shall be connected to the traffic signal controller to ensure the following: - Contact closure of signal when traffic signal enters the yellow change interval. - Contact closure of signal when traffic signal enters the red clearance interval. - Contact for power source (120V AC, 60 Cycle power, fused to protect the camera unit). - Indicator to alert field personnel of system malfunction. • The camera unit shall allow for on-site adjustment of camera activation. At a minimum, on-site adjustment shall allow for: - The Department to specify the delay time from vehicle initially entering the detection zone to declaration of a violation detection (assuming the vehicle speed exceeds the minimum established speed), in tenths of a second from 0.1 to 0.9 seconds. - Adjustments to the distance between detection zones. - Adjustments to the time or distance interval between the first and second violation image. - The date, day, and time. • Cameras should be aligned and positioned optimally to maximize the number of red-light violations that can be photographed while minimizing potential obstructions to view (e.g., vehicle out of focus, out of range, data bar blocking critical violation element, etc.). • The camera system shall record two (2) digital images in color for each violation - the first, prior to the vehicle crossing the legal stop line, and the second, at a preset delay time after the first. If a second vehicle violates the red light before the second photograph of the first violation has been taken, the second photograph shall be taken to document the violation of the second vehicle and a third photograph shall be taken to complete documentation of both the first and second violation. • The camera system shall be capable of identifying vehicles traveling straight through a signalized intersection or making a left turn at a traffic signal. The DEPARTMENT does not intend to monitor right-turn violat...
