Ekin Box Spotter: Enhancing Traffic Safety with Innovative Design

A Portable Solution for Speed Enforcement and Plate Recognition

Ekin Box Spotter, designed by Ulas Erdogan, is a unique and innovative solution that aims to enhance traffic safety. With its dual cameras and humanoid qualities, this design combines form and function to provide effective speed enforcement and plate recognition. Its adaptability to various overhead structures and durability in outdoor conditions make it a standout design in the field.

Ekin Box Spotter stands out from other speed enforcement and plate recognition systems with its portable and flexible application. This portable solution can be easily assembled on a tripod or pole, allowing police officers and security forces to quickly deploy it in areas where traffic safety is a concern. Its ability to detect every number plate and vehicle speed in its field of view ensures comprehensive monitoring and generates alarms in case of any violations or wanted vehicles.

The design of Ekin Box Spotter is a result of careful consideration of both functionality and visual appeal. The front cover, produced using plastic injection molding, features infrared permeable material, allowing for accurate detection. The body, made through aluminum extrusion molding, incorporates cooling channels designed after heat analysis to ensure optimal performance. The back cover, also produced using plastic injection molding, allows for the passage of LTE and GPS signals. The sun visor, made through plastic injection, protects the cameras from sunlight and prevents image distortion. The angled mounting stand, made of stainless steel, provides stability and flexibility in mounting options.

One of the challenges faced during the design stage was the assembly of Ekin Box Spotter. With its ability to be used on different types of mounting options, the design had to ensure suitability for outdoor conditions without compromising its aesthetic appeal. The materials used were carefully selected to meet these requirements.

Ekin Box Spotter's unique features and strengths make it a standout design in the field of speed enforcement and plate recognition. Its portability, adaptability, and comprehensive monitoring capabilities set it apart from traditional fixed surveillance solutions. By providing a portable system that can be quickly deployed, Ekin Box Spotter ensures maximum traffic safety and contributes to the overall well-being of communities.

This innovative design has been recognized for its excellence and creativity, receiving the Bronze A' Design Award in the Security, Safety, and Surveillance Products category in 2019. This prestigious award acknowledges designs that demonstrate outstanding technical and creative skills while contributing to quality of life improvements. Ekin Box Spotter's recognition in this category highlights its commitment to incorporating best practices in art, science, design, and technology.
