Traffic information system

This algorithm has a low impact. Traffic information systems collect information about the traffic, or provide information to the traffic. They also regulate traffic with rollovers, pollers, barriers, etc.

  • This algorithm has a low impact. Because the smart traffic lights are able to 'recognise' traffic, it becomes possible to prioritise certain traffic flows over others.

  • Intelligent traffic lights can detect various mobilities with sensing loops and push buttons and connect to in-car systems and navigation apps. To see traffic "coming" at an earlier stage and regulate it even smarter.

  • Whereas ordinary traffic lights register by detection loops (sensors in the road) that traffic is passing over, 'smart' traffic lights additionally register via apps what kind and how much traffic is coming. This allows traffic lights to see traffic "arriving" earlier and thus determine how long the traffic light is on green.
