The Tweety’s multicolour backlit display can show the status of the traffic light cycle for pedestrians with different tailored messages. An acoustic signal can be emitted, or alternatively a bespoke voice message can be emitted at any time in the pedestrian phase. The Tweety is available in three different colours, constructed in polycarbonate with an IP55 degree of protection.
