Traffic Detection for Efficient, Conflict-Free Intersections
Derq SENSE: Next-Gen Video Detection Identifies, Tracks, Classifies, and Predicts Vehicles and Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs)
Derq SENSE: Traffic Detection helps agencies improve traffic control, advance vehicle and VRU safety, and decrease congestion. Derq’s multimodal traffic detection edge-based system works with new or existing cameras, is compatible with most modern traffic controllers, provides stop bar and advance detection, enables adaptive traffic signal actuation, and has 99.83% accuracy of vehicle, pedestrian, and bicycle detection (FDOT APL testing results).

Resilient Performance in Challenging Conditions
Legacy video detection fails when visibility drops, triggering false actuations or missed calls to the controller. Derq eliminates this vulnerability by applying advanced edge-processing models that filter out visual noise and utilize temporal tracking to maintain continuous object classification: even when physical line-of-sight is severely degraded.

Stop Bar and Advance Detection
Derq’s next-gen traffic detection provides continuous, precise vehicle and VRU detection up to 600 feet all the way to the stop bar. Compatible with most modern controllers, Derq’s technology provides real-time speed, position, presence, and classification data directly to the controller cabinet.

Passive and Dynamic Traffic Signal Actuation
Modern traffic networks demand high-fidelity, real-time data inputs to maintain peak efficiency without sacrificing safety. Derq Traffic Detection levels up intersection intelligence by feeding continuous, real-time tracking metrics straight to the controller cabinet, providing agencies with dynamic actuation capabilities that reduce queue lengths and gridlock delays, optimize multimodal traffic flow, and protect pedestrians and vulnerable road users.
