pedestrian request intelligent signal police
recently, on the tourist route The red and green lights near the South Gate of Foshan are many new things: This is an intelligent signal lamp, it has the function of calculation and analysis, keep the red state in peacetime, to ensure the efficiency of road vehicle traffic. Pedestrians can manually start the countdown and switch to the green light when crossing the street.
Zhao Jingchun, the director of the Ji'nan traffic police branch signal control research office, said that the tourist route is a major traffic artery that runs through the East and west of Ji'nan in the southern part of the city, and the traffic flow is large. Qianfo Hill south gate is a pedestrian crossing on the tourist road, and there are also pedestrians crossing the street. In order to ensure the safety of pedestrians through the intersection, at the same time guaranteeing the high efficient traffic direction of the vehicle, reducing the number of parking and shortening the length of the queue, the Ji'nan traffic police detachment developed this "intelligent pedestrian crossing request signal control", referred to as intelligent signal lamp.
under the control of intelligent signal lights, pedestrians green light signals are determined by the needs of pedestrians crossing the road. If pedestrians do not cross the road, the traffic lights in the direction of the road are evergreen, avoiding the waste of pedestrians' green light time when there is no pedestrian crossing when the signal is fixed. When
pedestrians need to cross the road, the pedestrian button on the signal lamp pole is pressed first to send a pedestrian crossing request signal to the signal. The signal system automatically calculates the waiting time for the red light and the time of the pedestrians green light. At the same time, the pedestrian lights start the countdown function to let the pedestrians know the time of the red light signal and the green light in real time. The green light time to protect pedestrians crossing the road.
the system is also equipped with voice prompting and text reminders to facilitate pedestrians to access traffic lights. The system mainly has the following several states: in the absence of pressure, the LED screen prompts the "red light forbidden line, please press the button" to press the request button, the LED screen prompts "request trigger, patient waiting" green light, the LED screen prompts "green light release, fast pass".
reporter learned that the pedestrian crossing request signal lamp was not the first appearance in Ji'nan. Many years ago, the traffic police department had been in the ten road, Jiefang Road and other sections of the pilot. Because pedestrians are not sure how to operate, the pilot's intelligent signal system has neither the screen nor the voice prompt. Many pedestrians believe that the signal lights are damaged, so the illegal behavior of pedestrians, such as red light, often happens, so the intelligent signal system of these sections is declared bankrupt one after another. "
" intelligent pedestrian crossing request signal system can be used as a tourist road, with pedestrians crossing the street, but the law of pedestrians crossing the street is not obvious. " Zhao Jingchun said that if the pilot project was successful and the public recognized it, the intelligent signal lamp control system would be gradually promoted in Ji'nan.
