Abstract:
A vehicle detection and classification system which comprises a plurality of proximity sensors is distributed in a fixed spatial array relative to a road such that a distance of each sensor to the nearest adjacent sensor is less than a minimum horizontal dimension of a vehicle to be detected. The array has a maximum dimension greater than the minimum horizontal dimension of a vehicle to be detected. Each of the sensors is configured to determine presence or absence of a vehicle and to communicate data regarding said presence determination to a data processing system, wherein the data processing system is configured to use data from a plurality of the sensors to detect and classify a vehicle on the road based on at least one dimension of the vehicle.

Claim (Index 12):
A vehicle sensing system comprising a plurality of proximity sensors distributed in a fixed spatial array relative to a road such that a distance of each sensor to the nearest adjacent sensor is less than a minimum horizontal dimension of a vehicle to be detected but the maximum dimension of the array is greater than said minimum horizontal dimension of a vehicle to be detected, each of said sensors being configured to determine presence or absence of a vehicle and in use to communicate data regarding said presence determination to a data processing system, said data being such as to allow said data processing system to use data from a plurality of said sensors to detect and classify a vehicle on said road based on at least one dimension of said vehicle, wherein at least part of the array of sensors is disposed beneath or flush with a surface of the road.
