We’re proud to announce that Ekin Spotter, one of our innovative traffic enforcement solutions, has been highlighted in a recent article by Malay Mail titled “Speeding no more: What to know about the new point-to-point system pilot testing starting in June”.
The article, published on April 3, 2025, discusses Malaysia’s upcoming pilot project for a point-to-point speed enforcement system, to be implemented along stretches of the KL–Karak Expressway and North–South Expressway.
Quoting directly from the article:
“The camera used is called the Ekin Spotter, a compact surveillance device with a modular design that enables 360-degree video capture and automatic number plate recognition (ANPR).”
It continues:
“According to a source from the Home Ministry, the Ekin Spotter camera is capable of tracking vehicles going as fast as 320km/h, and it is precise enough to detect which specific lane a car is using.”
These capabilities are essential for the new system’s mission: enforcing speed limits by calculating a vehicle’s average speed between two points, rather than just its speed at a single location. The article explains:
“Under this method, a vehicle’s average speed is calculated by measuring the time taken to travel from one point to another, giving a more accurate reading of whether someone was speeding.”
Why Ekin Spotter Is at the Forefront
- Modular and scalable: “Compact surveillance device with a modular design” — adaptable to a wide range of environments.
- Ultra-fast tracking: Tracks speeds “as fast as 320km/h”.
- Lane-level accuracy: Offers “precise enough to detect which specific lane a car is using”.
- Supports fairer enforcement: Helps close enforcement gaps from traditional camera setups.
