Title:
TRAFFIC CONTROL UTILIZING VEHICLE-SOURCES SENSOR DATA, AND SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND SOFTWARE THEREFOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/140042
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Traffic control based on sensor data acquired using vehicle-borne sensors. Such sensor data can be used to control right-of-way priority for any one or more of various traffic objects sensed by the vehicle-borne sensors. In some embodiments vehicle-sourced sensor data is used to control traffic signals at one or more signalized roadway intersections. In some embodiments, a traffic-object awareness system utilizes at least one traffic-object-state algorithms to classify objects proximate to an intersection and to determine a current state of each object. The traffic-object-awareness system uses such classification and state information in executing a travel-prioritization algorithm to determine whether travel priority should be given to any one or more traffic objects identified within the classified objects. When the traffic-object-awareness system determines that travel priority should be given, it generates and sends a call signal to a traffic signal controller.
