ANAHEIM, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 29, 2004--Iteris, Inc., a
subsidiary of Iteris Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:ITRSA)(OTCBB:ITRSB), today
announced that the City of San Antonio, the nation's 8th largest city
and host of this week's 14th Annual ITS America Conference (ITS), has
now installed 150 of its 1100 intersections with Iteris' Vantage Video
Detection systems to help optimize the flow of traffic and reduce
driver delays.
"The City of San Antonio is one of the largest cities in America
to commit video detection systems to its streets on a large scale,"
said Nader Ayoub, president of Texas Highway Products, Ltd., the
distributor for Vantage systems in Texas. "We have enjoyed our
cooperative effort with the city to successfully deploy the Vantage
systems."
Vantage is one of the leading vehicle detection systems in the
country. It is a non-intrusive video-based system used to replace
inductive loops at intersections. The Vantage systems are used to
optimize the operation of the traffic signals, reducing delays and
congestion for the motoring public. In addition to helping reduce
congestion, Vantage video images can also be transmitted to remote
traffic control centers for surveillance or homeland security
applications.
"Iteris is pleased to be working with the City of San Antonio.
They are a progressive city that views video detection as an important
link in their traffic management system," said Michael T. Volling,
business development manager for Iteris.
Iteris manufactures and sells its Vantage systems for traffic
control applications, giving traffic managers tools to mitigate
roadway congestion by modifying traffic signal timing or detecting
incidents more quickly. Vantage also offers data collection software
for highway management systems. Over 25,000 Vantage sensors have been
deployed by hundreds of agencies in 49 states, as well as Europe and
Asia. The product is currently sold through a network of over 20
independent dealers in North America, Asia, Europe, and South America.
