AR: Bluetooth Travel Time System

Many districts have projects in the pipeline to install generate travel time from re-identifying toll tags. There toll tag readers coat $50k installed and require a few years through the PS&E process. Bluetooth readers cost $500 each, have a much higher hit rate, and don't have privacy concerns. There is considerable savings to be recouped by deploying bluetooth readers instead of toll tag readers.
