AI enables superior read rates of CVSA decals and makes IRD's CVSA decal reader ideal for automatic pre-screening of commercial vehicles travelling at highway speeds in advance of weigh stations.

Key Points: 
  • AI enables superior read rates of CVSA decals and makes IRD's CVSA decal reader ideal for automatic pre-screening of commercial vehicles travelling at highway speeds in advance of weigh stations.
  • This ensures that vehicles with expired decals, that may not have been recently inspected, are prioritized for inspection potentially improving the fairness and effectiveness of commercial vehicle enforcement.
  • There is potential for existing cameras to be augmented with IRD's CVSA decal reader system at hundreds of pre-screening locations across North America.
  • The CVSA decal reader is IRD's first commercial product that integrates AI with IRD's iSINC Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) controllers, and we see tremendous potential for more AI applications in the near future.
