Emergency Traffic Warning: • Accidents • Traffic Jam • Road blockage • Poor Weather Condition • Lanslides • Letting way to emergency vehicles • Objective: • Provide drivers with: • General Traffic Information • Speed Limit • Road Sign • Location • Traffic light status • Weather condition • Map of surrounding streets • Further Development: • Windscreen projection • Integration with dashboard and console • A central system controlled by a company or government • Optical fibres for better transmittion • Integration with GPS Traffic Information Provision System TWGHs Wong Fut Nam College
Integration with GPS? Traffic Information Provision System TWGHs Wong Fut Nam College
Ways of integration • In towns where there are a lot of buildings, underground signal emitting system should be used. • - In countryside, GPS should be used.
Advantage of GPS over underground signal emitting system - Low Costs - Need not change the structure of the roads Disadvantage of GPS - Subject to movement or destruction by environment factors. - Limited precision. - Complicated. - Limited Coverage. - Easily blocked by tall buildings.
Disadvantages of GPS - Subject to movement or destruction by environment factors. - Limited precision. - Complicated. - Limited Coverage. - Easily blocked by tall buildings.
