Features
Full-Matrix LED Display
Enjoy unlimited messaging capabilities with ease. Software text input, drawing, copy, paste, and photo import tools will help you set up your messages with efficiency.
Brightest Display
VCalm® utilizes high-volume high-intensity tightly clustered LEDs to maintain the highest visibility possible. This proven method of authoritative message presentation demands driver’s attention, making it the most effective traffic calming sign on the market.
Lowest Power Consumption
VCalm® uses proprietary PWMS™ LED technology that consumes 50% less power than common LED devices. This provides exceptional autonomy for solar/battery installations.
Ultimate Traffic Data Acquisition
VCalm®ITS logs and timestamps the first, last, fastest, and slowest speed for each vehicle to support the most thorough analysis on individual and collective driver behavior.
Removeable Data Storage
Nearly unlimited speed data storage capacity is available on removable SD card.
Expandable Functionality
Trigger custom messages or alerts from external inputs like pedestrian push buttons, temperature sensors, etc. VCalm®ITS also supports full flashing beacon control.
Automated Management
The web-based software will automatically download vehicle speed data, update configuration and firmware changes, and generate and email speed study reports.
Strongest Construction
VCalm® maintains superior construction and durability with high quality components and no moving parts. The design meets the NEMA-3R specifications, and many of the VCalm® signs have withstood severe conditions, including hurricanes, fires, and extreme temperatures. VCalm® has consistently proven to be the longest lasting speed sign in the industry.
Alerts and Self-Diagnostics
Receive real-time email or SMS warnings for pixel failures, power failures, excessive speeding, and solar panel theft.
Driver Feedback Modes
Trigger messages and speed display using user-definable vehicle speed thresholds.
