Building on the best practices from first-generation designs, TRMI has engineered a second generation of Open Road Tolling (ORT) with accuracy and reliability that can make your move to All Electronic Tolling (AET) more practical and more viable.
Even if full AET is not in your immediate future, TRMI delivers an Open Road Tolling (ORT) system with a level of sophistication and performance that is a generation beyond the others. That’s why we call it ORT 2.0™.
Field-proven solutions
Along with the next generation of ORT, TRMI delivers decades of experience
in the design, installation, and integration of complex electronic toll
collection systems. Currently, TRMI’s systems accurately and reliably
process millions of toll transactions every day. Choosing TRMI to design
and build your ORT system is the choice of innovation, experience and value.
ORT 2.0 Means Better for Less
When we developed our ORT system, we examined the existing technologies
at the component level and didn’t take anything for granted. We investigated
all available AVC, AVI, and VES systems with a fresh eye, and we built our
system from the ground up, avoiding the expensive mistakes of earlier generations
of ORT designs. The bottom line is: You pay less for a more advanced system.
ORT 2.0 Means Greater Accuracy
With Datalign™ Post Processing
One of the chief advantages of TRMI’s design over the others is that
our zone controller accepts all intermediate messages from Autosense®,
Idris®, and AVI, and it uses all of the data to build real-time scenarios.
In the process, we construct a virtual overhead sensor with multiple overlapping
beams to form a monolithic sensing system. The zone controller then applies
this information to detect sensor failures and to automatically downgrade
sensor weighting in the algorithm.
And our innovation doesn’t stop there. TRMI has designed a proprietary
post-processing system into its Guardian™ Software Suite called the
Datalign module. Datalign employs intelligent components to examine all available
data as a unified set. The module then uses this perspective to improve tag
association and enhance classification accuracy.
ORT 2.0 Means Greater Reliability
Unlike with earlier generations, reliability was a starting objective for
our design, not
an afterthought. TRMI’s ORT system employs multiple sensors with overlapping
functions to provide fault tolerance that eliminates the chance of a single,
system-wide
point of failure.
TRMI’s ORT uses the Stratus® ftServer® system for its zone controller.
The ftServer features
industry-leading uptime with parallel CPUs and a RAID data storage system.
With this
configuration, the system can lose a CPU and three disks without causing
any downtime.
The zone contoller’s uptime is 99.999%.
