iCone Products and SolarTech Collaborate to Enhance Arrow Boards with Smart Technology
Cato, NY --- iCone Products, LLC announces today their partnership with Solar Technology Inc. (SolarTech), a premier manufacturer of high-tech specialized construction equipment used for the management and control of traffic in and around work zones associated with road, highway and bridge construction, maintenance and repair. SolarTech produces among the most reputed arrow boards on the market, which are now available with a specialized harness designed to seamlessly integrate with iCone’s ConnectedTech Arrow Board Kits. By utilizing ConnectedTech™ software, SolarTech arrow boards will be able to connect to live data streams, enabling traffic managers and system operators to manage and monitor their assets from any connected device.
Connecting traffic equipment such as arrow boards to iCone’s IoR - Internet of RoadWork™ provides system managers with real-time situational awareness, allowing for streamlined evaluation of response time and equipment allocation. This in turn provides increased safety through an additional layer of security for both workers and oncoming motorists as well as improving route navigation through communication with in-car navigation systems such as Google Maps, Waze, and eventually directly displayed in the dash of automobiles.
As an iCone Products distributor, SolarTech arrow boards can also come pre-installed with the iCone Arrow Board Kit, which provides permanent records of your arrow board fleet including GPS location monitoring, arrow board status, and the ability to change the status of your arrow panels remotely, saving both time and money for traffic managers and operators.
