According to the British "Daily Telegraph" reported on May 18, London city transportation company Vivacity Labs has developed artificial intelligence (AI) traffic lights, and will be released in Milton Keynes in 2018 to ease traffic congestion.
The conventional traffic lights we use today have a timed pre-programming process that has remained unchanged for many years. It is usually preferred to consider those roads that may be congested, and the people, traffic and road conditions on the road are subject to change. For example, each time the green light is on, it is only 30 seconds at the intersection of the road, and a few minutes at the intersection of the two-way street. But this requires manual operation and it is not possible to make changes to changing traffic flows. Moreover, depending on demographic and topographical changes, the cost of reprogramming an intersection is too high and many cities will not consider doing so. Then, building a flexible AI system can solve this problem.
Milton Keynes invested £3 million (approximately RMB 26.76 million) to develop the technology. The technology detects road congestion and changes the traffic light sequence to keep the vehicle flowing. In addition, its traffic lights will install more than 2,500 cameras to monitor traffic conditions.
The company's chief technology officer said: "The AI ​​camera accurately identifies and reports road usage, eliminating the need for heavy manual identification and greatly reducing the possibility of manual error. It can also be connected to existing management systems. Protecting vulnerable groups of road users, such as cyclists, by prioritizing release or changing traffic lights to avoid traffic jams."
In the future, this technology can be connected to and communicate with driverless cars. According to the company, when there is a danger, such as when a car in the vicinity fails, the traffic light will give an alarm to ensure the safety of the driver and passenger.
