About our Red Light Runner

Red light enforcement solution detect vehicles that drive straight through a red traffic light. The goal of this solution is to provide a list of potential red light violators including information such as: Vehicle Speed ; Pictures before, and during the red traffic light display, or a video record ; Indicate the red light status in each image ; Orange light duration before red light

A traffic light intersection can be monitored by detecting vehicles from the front or the rear depending on the chosen hardware set-up. The red-light crossing detection can either be done physically by using a direct wired connection between the traffic-light and our camera OR by using the AI included in our camera.

The physical connection brings a perfect precision and guarantee to receive the exact status and timing from the traffic light while the AI allows an easier set-up and provides more use cases and flexibility.

Furthermore, a virtual loop, also referred to as an ‘ROI’ (region of interest), can be predefined within the camera image. If the vehicle enters into this monitored ROI within a predetermined time window when the red traffic light time duration has been triggered, it is indeed possible to grab and define a potential violator and prove the infraction.

Stop violations before they cause accidents. Our Red Light solution keeps intersections safe for drivers, pedestrians, and the community.

Main Characteristics 

1. Real-Time Detection and Recording

Macq’s Red Light Runner automatically detects vehicles running red lights at intersections, capturing detailed evidence including vehicle speed, high-resolution images before and during the infraction, video records, and the traffic light status (red/orange). The system ensures authorities have precise, legally admissible data for enforcement.

2. Advanced ANPR and AI Integration

Equipped with state-of-the-art ANPR cameras, the module can identify vehicles from multiple angles and track offenders with accuracy. Detection can be performed via a direct wired connection to the traffic light for maximum precision or using embedded AI for flexibility, easier installation, and additional use cases.

3. Flexible Setup with Virtual Loops

Operators can define regions of interest (ROI) within camera images, allowing detection of vehicles entering the monitored area during red-light phases. This ensures that only true violations are flagged, reducing false positives and streamlining enforcement.

4. Comprehensive Analytics and Compliance

The system generates detailed reports highlighting peak violation periods, critical intersections, and offender patterns. Fully compliant with national and international traffic regulations, it integrates seamlessly with existing traffic management systems and offender databases for smooth operations.
