How it works

• Novus Delta uses GPS technology to determine its proximity to speed cameras
• Novus Delta displays your current speed whilst in motion
• The Novus Delta database warns the driver of an approaching speed camera by an initial voice alert typically at 500 yards. Novus Delta announces and displays the speed limit of the road
• If at 200 yards the vehicle is exceeding the speed limit, Novus Delta will advise the driver to reduce speed
• Novus Delta sounds an alert as the vehicle passes the speed camera

Road specific alert versus simple zonal alert explained

Lower cost locators typically use a Simple Zone method. They advise the driver that they are approaching a camera by generating a warning whenever a vehicle crosses the boundary of a 500 yard circle centred on the camera position regardless of the vehicles direction. From the illustration below it can be seen that there are many roads within the shaded 500
yard zone and will give rise to the possibility of many false alerts using the single activation point method.

Novus Delta removes false alerts by using a two position activation method, using an initial activation point and camera location. Novus Delta will only generate a warning when a vehicle passes an activation point and is driving towards the camera. Should a vehicle be driving from the opposite direction, the vehicle will not pass the activation point and no false alarm will be raised. If the driver joins from a side after the activation point, then
Novus Delta senses the direction of travel and compares it with the direction of the speed camera and activation point and warns the driver of a speed camera ahead if driving in the direction of the camera. ‘RSA’
