REAL TIME TRAFFIC STATUS DISPLAY

Background

Millions of people deal with traffic congestion on a daily basis. The roadways leading into and out of most major cities can become gridlocked due to accidents, road construction, or simply a high number of cars on the road.

System Overview

• Solution Details

>> Traffic Data Collection

Traffic data is collected by traffic flow cameras using non-intrusive virtual loops where detection is done through advanced computer algorithms and does not involve any road work as in the case of an inductive loop. It can cover 1-4 lanes at a time, and has a 99% detection accuracy at speeds below 80km/h.

>> Traffic Data Processing

An advanced traffic flow information analysis algorithm gets and analyzes a city's traffic conditions in real time and displays results on special road signs in colors of red, yellow, and green to represent the speed of traffic flow. It serves as a guide to help drivers select the best travel route, easing overall traffic congestion.
