Traditionally, vehicle detection for the majority of solar traffic signal controller applications has
been via the simple inductive loop. Whilst loops have proven to be generally reliable, their
design and functioning has led many industry professionals to question their practicality and
cost-effectiveness.
Clearview Traffic offers the M100 wireless vehicle detection system which utilises new
technologies to ensure a smooth installation and deliver a long-term solution for ultra efficient
traffic signal control.
Since there's no trenching or ducting involved, the slim line profile of the M100 can be installed
quickly and easily and is also fully type-approved to the Highways Agency's specifications and
also is compatible with all types of MIDAS outstations and urban traffic light systems such as
SCOOT, MOVA and System D.
Intelligent traffic signal controller
Nowadays, traffic lights have become an integral part of human`s
day-to-day life. With this motivation in the mind, intelligent traffic signal
controller aims at designing and implementing, a running model of solar
traffic light controller which is controlled according to the density of
vehicle on road.
What does the intelligent traffic signal controller aim at? It controls
up to 4-phases traffic system with the traffic flow optimization strategies,
optimize the traffic flow at network junctions, measurable improve traffic
flow, reduce environmental pollution caused by traffic ,most importantly
increase road safety.
What can intelligent traffic signal controller bring us? It can reduce
vehicle-pedestrian conflicts and reduce or increase waiting time, what is
more, the duration of green light can be adapted to the user`s needs.
Therefore, it contributes to public safety and security on streets and
sidewalks, reduce the risk of accident on road ways, cycle paths and
sidewalks and make a city more attractive, improve the quality of life.
The solar traffic signal controller just work on the solar panel, work
theory is as follows: life cycle costs typically 20% of existing technology,
6 Watt to 45W Luminaries ,Battery selection with 10 yr guarantee,
installation is easy, install the anti-skid unloaded the lamp pole, and
install the bracket on the solar panel, adjust the solar panel`s direction and
angle, then tight the screw at last.
A pole traffic light is green other theree ploes are red they are
transmitting IR wave from the IR transimitting led IR automated vehicle
ignityion off circuit works nearby 3-5 inch area straight . It off the
ignition supply of the vehicle for stop.
Use of intelligent traffic signal controller instead of other controllers
such as PLC makes the smart traffic signal controller hardware a low
cost system. The program downloaded into the microcontroller enables
it to have a high accuracy timing, high independency and consistenctly,
it enabales the proposed intelligent traffic signal controller system to
realize traffic flow optimization strategies at a single or network
junctions.
I have one mounted over one of my work benches. I wanted to make it work but
couldn't find an electronic controller. I'm not really into electronics and didn't want
to design my own. Then I came up with an idea to make it work. I went real old
school mechanical by utilizing an old barbecue grill rotisserie, some unused power
drill brushes, and a wooden disk with 3 brass pie shaped pieces glued onto its face
-all stuffed in a little box on the wall behind my traffic light in a back room. The
lights change just right, long green, short yellow, long red, long green, ect...
I thought I was being crafty/ingenious with this design but then a week after I
made the thing, I found an electronic controller on Amazon for cheap
money.
Anyhow here is my traffic light, just wish it had the shields over the lamps...
The new traffic lights you are seeing are made out of arrays of light emitting diodes (LEDs).
These are tiny, purely electronic lights that are extremely energy efficient and have a very long
life. Each LED is about the size of a pencil eraser, so hundreds of them are used together in an
array. The LEDs are replacing the old-style incandescent halogen bulbs rated at between 50
and 150 watts. Most cities in the United States are in the process of replacing their
incandescent traffic lights with LED units because of three big advantages:
LEDs are brighter. The LED arrays fill the entire "hole" and have equal brightness across the
entire surface, making them brighter overall.
LED bulbs last for years, while halogen bulbs last for months. Replacing bulbs costs money
for the trucks and people who do the work, and it also ties up traffic. Increasing the
replacement interval can save a city big dollars.
LED bulbs save a lot of energy.
The energy savings of LED lights can be huge. Assume that a traffic light uses 100-watt bulbs
today. The light is on 24 hours a day, so it uses 2.4 kilowatt-hours per day. If you assume
power costs 8 cents per kilowatt-hour, it means that one traffic signal costs about 20 cents a
day to operate, or about $73 per year. There are perhaps eight signals per intersection, so
that's almost $600 per year in power per intersection. A big city has thousands of intersections,
so it can cost millions of dollars just to power all the traffic lights. LED bulbs might consume 15
or 20 watts instead of 100, so the power consumption drops by a factor of five or six. A city can
easily save a million dollars a year by replacing all of the bulbs with LED units. These
low-energy bulbs also open the possibility of using solar panels instead of running an electrical
line, which saves money in remote areas.
