Smart crosswalk
safety of life of pedestrians in the unregulated pedestrian crossing
"Smart crosswalk" will turn red as soon as it is touched by a human’s foot.The installed sensor will react to the appearance of a pedestrian and give a signal by the light elements of the "Smart crosswalk" to warn road users of the danger! Undoubtedly, the driver will be able to see this signal even from away, because the whole area of pedestrian crossing will be glowing red! The driver will be able to stop the car and allow pedestrians go, because the red light is visible from the farthest distance.In conditions of poor visibility or night time, the sensors of "Smart crosswalk" will turn on the backlight standby pedestrian and the area of pedestrian crossing will be illuminated with white light, so that it will also warn all road users about the proximity of the pedestrian crossing zone and that the crosswalk is empty and the way for cars is opened.
