Traffic lights aren’t an exception. For the most part, unchanged for over 100 years, modern American traffic lights have entered the age of machine learning. The result is a more efficient, safer and greener transportation world. Preemption of traffic signals for technologytraffic.com/2021/07/08/generated-post instance, can assist drivers in avoiding potentially life-threatening collision. A system that integrates traffic lights and an e-bike/scooter sensor will automatically time stoppages so that they align with commuters’ daily schedules.
IoT sensors and connectivity technologies enable smarter traffic control systems that maximize energy efficiency by optimizing signal timings based on actual conditions. The data gathered from sensors and cameras can either be processed within the device or sent to the traffic management hub where it is integrated into AI algorithms. The results are more precise modeling and predictive analysis to reduce congestion, align public transit schedules and reduce carbon emissions.
These technologies are smart and could transform the urban transport system. Smart sensors for e-bikes and scooters, for instance, are able to detect and communicate the location of shared vehicles to facilitate more convenient ride-sharing while micromobility payment systems permit parking on the street and road toll payments without needing correct changes.
Smart traffic technology based on IoT can also improve the efficiency of public transport and allow commuters to track buses and trams in real-time via live tracking apps. Intelligent intersection technology can assist prioritize emergency vehicles to ensure they arrive at their destination quicker This is a breakthrough that has already reduced the number of crashes in certain cities.
