Telematics applications have become increasingly commonplace in the traffic segment in recent years. To date, the focus has been mostly on the solution’s technical components; design aspects were often only taken into consideration to the extent required. Of course, careful design can direct the reaction of the observer, enabling the use of video recording equipment to avoid a deterrent effect and instead promote a sense of safety.

Impressive functionality and aesthetics – State Prize award
The City Pole telematics solution is an initial prototype, which combines functionality and aesthetics. It comprises a telematics unit on the installation mast (City Pole), a camera housing and a transceiver housing. It works particularly well in the urban environment with its visual and aesthetic compatibility, but also offers a wide range of requirement profiles in geographical terms (e.g. climatic). The City Pole can be used in cities (entry restrictions, red light monitoring), or in parking space management. The Kapsch TrafficCom "City Pole" prototype was created in conjunction with the design office formquadarat within the scope of the Austrian subsidy programme I2VSplus (category CREATECH: Industry meets Design).
