Summary Recently, for the improvement of traffic management and traffic information collection ability, the government authorities have paid large efforts on the construction of vehicle detectors. However, it seems that the foreign-manufacture detectors don’t match the needs of Taiwan’s traffic environment, and the cost of those detectors is too high. In consideration of the above problems, the Institute of Transportation has taken much effort to study the technology of the microwave vehicle detector and image vehicle detector, and the results were quite well. To distribute the research outcomes, the Institute plans to transfer the technology findings to the domestic manufacturers and to accelerate Taiwan’s vehicle detector industry development in the future.

  Due to the involvement of the intellectual property rights during the period of technology transfer, in the 2007project, the Institute plunged into the patent study of the vehicle detectors, and several patent applications of the Institute’s unique study findings on the vehicle detectors were submitted. In the 2008 project, the Institute paid attention to the study of international vehicle detector industry analysis, possible new functions of vehicle detectors, and setting up the legal documents for the technology transfer.
