Reno A&E to Display x-Link™ at ITS America’s Annual Meeting
& Expo
x-Link™, the only interconnected railroad / light rail grade-crossing operations recorder that incorporates digital video and VITAL data of critical train, signal status and vehicle movements, will be on display in Reno A&E’s booth at ITS America’s Annual Meeting & Expo. The system can be connected to a vehicle detection system that can trigger a recording sequence to alert the responsible agency if a vehicle is stopped on a class 1 rail or light rail track area. Please visit booth 417 in the exhibit hall and learn more about our traffic-rail grade crossing solutions. (Reno A&E will have a drawing for an Apple iPad Mini-3, (WiFi with 64 GB), during the conference, for those visiting the booth and leaving their business card).
