7716 Veronet, the latest interface for traffic node control from Austrian engineering and software company Andata allows a completely new access to intelligent traffic control, for highly automated evaluation of optimal green and cycle times of any traffic situation and intersection configuration.

Control algorithms for traffic nodes (node control objects calculate the best traffic control parameters such as turnaround and green times, taking arbitrary control targets in real time for a given traffic situation into consideration. The control targets may be chosen freely by a traffic operator or the police on the spot or separate modules, with the help of artificial intelligence, to autonomously determine the best control strategy for the relevant traffic situation.

Existing software for timing traffic signals has several limitations, says Carolina Osorio, an assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering at MIT and lead author of a forthcoming paper in the journal Transportation Science that describes the new system, based on a study of traffic

    March 17, 2014
    A fledgling advanced lane management assist system can take the guesswork out of selecting the right lane on a congested freeway, as its inventor Robert Gordon explains. As drivers we’ve all done it and control room staff see it all the time – motorists on congested freeways switching into what they perceive is a faster lane, only to come to a halt a few moments later and watch vehicles in the other lanes continue to move past. Now, by re-analysing readily available data in an advanced lane management as

  • Motor insurance for autonomous vehicles ‘will shift from drivers to OEMs’
    October 19, 2015
    Autonomous vehicles are likely to increase insurance claims related to product parameters rather than driver liability New analysis from Frost & Sullivan, Impact of Automated Vehicles on Motor Insurance Market, finds that motor insurers will move away from the driver-centric strategy to follow one or a combination of three models as automated vehicles become common: product-centric evaluation; brand-centric evaluation; system-centric evaluation.
