FMCSA study: Infrared brake inspections not ready for national use: Land Line Magazine

The results of a study on "smart" infrared cameras that could be used to help law enforcement identify vehicles with brake or tire deficiencies show the devices have an 83 percent success rate.

But law enforcement officers who field-tested the device in Tennessee during a 2010 field operations study say that although they see the technology as having potential to increase productivity in terms of screening for inspections, they think that it's not ready for national use.
