Yep, sounds like a Truvelo camera. AFAIK they use infrared cameras so they don't need a regular camera flash, hence it's safe to have them right in a driver's face.

Gatsos are still the most popular type of camera but certain police forces seem to favour Truvelos - there's a lot of them in Oxfodshire, I've been told.
