In the past few years, the population of all countries in the world has generally trended toward urban concentration. However, this has inevitably brought an increasingly heavy load on urban roads in major cities. In this case, more and more cities are now available. The study of IoT technology began to be considered as the best solution for improving urban traffic and road safety.
In Denver, Colorado, the capital of the United States, the city council recently approved a budget of $12 million, which will be used to study how to use the Internet of Things technology to change the movement of vehicles and pedestrians in urban areas. The ultimate goal is to reduce road congestion, improve pedestrian safety, and allow trucks and trucks to move within the city with more efficient routes.
Nancy Kuhn, spokesperson for the Denver City Government's public works department, said that there is only a limited amount of road space left in Denver. If you want to build a new road, it will cost you a lot. Therefore, it is only possible to make the existing roads as effective as possible. Use.
The idea of ​​the plan is to link the vehicles on the road to the infrastructure to collect traffic data and then share that information with the public to help vehicles and pedestrians move more easily, safely and more easily. effectiveness.
According to the plan, the Denver City Council is expected to use IoT technology to improve road usage from three aspects. First, the program will install networked devices that interact with traffic signals on trucks and trucks that frequently travel through downtown Denver to help these vehicles pass the main traffic lanes more efficiently or avoid smaller ones. Roadways and traffic spikes in order to reduce their impact on communities and roads during peak hours.
Second, the City of Denver is embarking on a technology to build a technology for up to 1,500 urban fleets in a small area, allowing these teams to build long-lasting interactions with the road infrastructure to make it appear for the future. More networked vehicles are preparing for the event, and these teams will be able to return real-time reports of road traffic conditions at any time, providing residents with better traffic information and helping to improve the commuting experience of the people.
Finally, the plan will also build a pedestrian detection system on the road that can be linked to traffic signs. The ultimate goal is to create a dynamic real-time traffic system that can extend pedestrians when it is found that pedestrians need more time to cross the road. The green light signal, or when a pedestrian suddenly appears on the road, immediately sends a warning to the vehicle to avoid possible traffic accidents and provide more protection for the safety of pedestrians and vehicles on the road.
