QLynx Nano

An Evolutionary Leap in ITS

 

Award-Winning Safety

Remarkably Simple

Powerfully Compact

 

We’d like to introduce you to something special we’ve been cooking up at PDP.

It’s called the QLynx Nano. It’s the latest in our line of portable ITS devices. It integrates seamlessly into our award-winning smart work zone system.

Safer

And it’s about to make work zones a whole lot safer.

PDP has always lived close to the field. Our engineers know what life is like on a project site. We know about the competing priorities, tight deadlines and ever-shrinking budgets. We understand the delicate balance of completing a project while ensuring the safety of drivers.

That’s why we designed the Nano to be:

• Easy to set up
• Versatile
• Hassle-free
• Maintenance-free
• Reliable

Let’s talk about this.

Incredibly, ridiculously easy to set up.

We asked our friends at DOTs, contractors and traffic control companies about their #1 work zone safety equipment complaint.

They needed something that would just work. You don’t need to mess with it. It just works.

It works no matter who sets up the device onsite.

We get it.

In this industry, there can be high staff turnover, especially among on-site workers. Contractors already have their hands full with basic safety and job training. The last thing they need is to train their employees on a complex or time-consuming set-up.

So we made the Nano ridiculously easy to operate. Here’s how it works:

Turn it on.
Point at traffic.
Check the screen.

And that’s it. It’s the only portable ITS system that gives that kind of immediate, clear feedback.

This is what the Nano touch screen looks like:

 

It’s versatile

The Nano can be used in queue detection systems, travel time systems, dynamic lane merge systems. It can even be used for truck entering highway warning systems and instant stopped traffic alert systems when paired with a flashing beacon warning sign trailer with our exclusive instant point to point communication. The Nano is available as a trailer-mounted device, a pole mount or can be mounted to existing equipment such as message boards.

 

Put it anywhere, leave it there as long as you need

The Nano can be deployed just about anywhere for any duration without trips to recharge like some other portable ITS devices. With multiple mounting configurations, the Nano can be co-located with existing equipment like message boards, pole-mounted, sign stand mounted, or pretty much anywhere else you want to put it.

Never Lose Track of Devices. Onboard GPS Realtime™ allows PDP’s servers to track equipment so even if sensors get moved out of order, the system will still work.

1-Step Sensor Setup. No skills or training are required to set up the sensor.  Step 1: Aim sensor at traffic. There is no step 2.

Instant Onboard Verification. QLynx Nano is the first portable ITS sensor that gives onboard, immediate feedback about the system. Field staff knows that the sensor is reading traffic through the 3.5″ color touchscreen display. Other portable ITS systems leave you guessing and hoping. With the Nano, you know. Instantly.

Always Powered Up. All QLynx Nano units are designed to operate indefinitely in the field. No costly and time-wasting recharging trips required.  

Graph Insights. Our web-based control and information platform allows you to quickly gain a detailed picture of the entire work zone. Set messages, view speed graphs, and more. 

This Is All We Do. With PDP you get expert service fast.  ITS is not a side business or experiment for us. ITS may be complicated, but we make it easy for you. PDP supports you 100% of the way with our knowledgeable, helpful support. Our customer service isn’t lip service.
