Traffic monitoring sensor with Nanotechnology Many communities in the U.S. and Europe has begun to integrate intelligent transportation systems (ITS) in the infrastructure of transportation systems to help monitor and manage traffic and reduce congestion. These systems also provide transportation professionals the tools necessary to collect, analyze and archive the data used to evaluate the performance of these systems. An important part of these STIs are movement sensors that provide real time information services and applications such as traffic lights control traffic counters tol

Ever since Carbon Nanotubes debuted a decade ago, scientists have touted the strength attainable by ordinary materials reinforced with these strands of pure carbon. Subsequent studies have added superior heat-conducting properties to the futuristic fibers’ portfolio of benefits. Now this longstanding promise of super fortified heat-conducting materials has become a reality. University of Pennsylvania scientists have determined that adding a relatively small number of carbon Nanotubes to epoxy yields compound three-and-a-half times as hard and far better at heat conductance than the pro
