iNAVIGATOR LEGACY APS
A complete, compliant, and easy-to-use Accessible Pedestrian Signal (APS) with options for two- and three-wire installations.
Note: The iDS/iNS is the new, current production model and offers a significant upgrade to the iNavigator.
Features
Wireless communication
Secure wireless connectivity via Bluetooth® and wifi provide easy, fast, and secure programming from iOS/Android devices.
Advanced push button technology
The iNavigator uses a durable “Hall effect” push button that allows for adjustable actuation force and a long service life.
Dual-side speaker
All sounds emanate from the front and back of the unit while automatically adjusting to ambient noise levels.
Confirmation signals
A sunlight-visible red LED latches “ON” and a tactile arrow vibrates to confirm the button has been pushed.
Why you should upgrade to the iDS/iNS
The iDS/iNS is our current model of APS, and represents a significant upgrade to the iNavigator series. The iDS comes with a built-in radar unit for touchless activation, while both the iDS and iNS feature secure wireless connectivity via Bluetooth 5 for greater speed, range, and app capabilities. Both are compatible with PedApp, Polara’s pedestrian mobility app that allows users to access audible crossing information and remotely activate signals from their smartphone.
