Traffic Technology Services (TTS) and 139 TransCore have taken a step closer in bringing traffic signal information into the vehicle.

TransCore will integrate its TransSuite advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) software into TTS’ Personal Signal Assistant to help motorists minimise the time spent at red lights. TransSuite’s ATMS map interface provides real-time traffic data, which is used by TTS to predict signal switch times. This data is then applied by OEMs and others to synchronise access through traffic signals.

TTS showcased the Personal Signal Assistant product, supporting Audi’s traffic light online information service, at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show and is now deploying the service nationwide in select metro areas, often overlapping with agencies utilising the TransSuite solution.

    Despite much research and technological promise, progress towards cooperative infrastructure system deployment is still slow. Here, Robert Cone and John Miles take a considered look at how and when it might come about. From a systems engineering viewpoint it looks logical and inevitable that vehicles should be communicating between themselves and with the road infrastructure. But seen from a business viewpoint the case is not proven.

    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a

Traffic management authorities have for years been trying to get ahead of the game. Instead of reacting to situations, they want to be able to head them off as they occur – or even before they happen. Finding that Holy Grail of successfully anticipating problems will save time, tension and tempers on city streets. Two new system
