Theia Technologies to Demonstrate Intelligent Telephoto at Intertraffic Amsterdam
Wilsonville, OR —23 February, 2026 — Theia Technologies will demonstrate its TL1250P-IQ 4K motorized telephoto lens for tolling and traffic enforcement at Intertraffic Amsterdam, 10–13 March, 2026 (Stand 05.255).
“We’re excited to once again participate in Intertraffic Amsterdam, where we’ll be showcasing our high-performance telephoto and ultra wide no distortion lenses that are routinely selected for ANPR and LPR traffic management solutions,” said Andrea Van Landingham, V.P. of Business Development at Theia Technologies. “We’re also proud that our co-founder and V.P. of Advanced Technology, Mark Peterson, will be presenting on how intelligent motorized telephotos integrate seamlessly into free-flow tolling applications to improve revenue collection and occupant counting.”
Free-flow and hybrid tolling systems worldwide are replacing gated plazas with camera-based ANPR systems to enable high-speed traffic movement, congestion pricing, restricted city access, and HOT lane enforcement while improving safety, and revenue collection. Studies from organizations such as U.S. DOT and DG MOVE show major reductions in emissions and collisions compared to traditional toll booths, but achieving these benefits depends on high-resolution optics capable of capturing at least 100 pixels across a license plate in varied lighting and weather.
Advanced 4K cameras paired with sharp, fast-aperture telephoto lenses eliminate motion blur at long distances, support multi-lane coverage, and enable both plate recognition and occupant counting, even through glare or tinted glass using controlled NIR illumination.
The Theia TL1250P-IQ delivers 4K resolution in both visible and NIR, 12–50mm motorized zoom, F/1.5 aperture, remote zoom and focus control, and switchable IR filtering in a compact, form for gantry or pole mounting- enabling remote operation to easily change zoom and find focus without having to stop traffic, reducing maintenance and lane closures thus saving costs. The MCR IQ motor control board accessory offers a compact, lightweight design for flexible configuration. The TL1250P-IQ model adds embedded intelligence with focus/zoom calibration, back focal length calibration, and GUI-based control software to streamline integration and deployment, reducing time to market.
