England's Direct Line insurance company has launched a "smart" pedestrian crossing. The new technology will significantly increase the safety of roads. The "smart" passage consists of several sensors that warn the driver of danger by discovering the pedestal. It also provides information about vehicles approaching pedestrians.
According to nanonewsnet.ru the pedestrian crossing with light diodes works in several modes. When there is no vehicle on the road, the light turns green automatically. The length of the passage is 22 meters, but when it crosses more pedestrian paths it extends width. The system also lights up pedestrians to warn the driver in the dark. The red light goes on when the vehicle is approaching. In addition, the green light is replaced by the red when crossing the road, violating the traffic rules. For example, if the pedestrian crosses the system, the system will inform the driver about the danger.
