Patent attributes
A system and a method manage wireless traffic signals in order to aid autonomous driving systems and humans to quickly and accurately detect traffic signal changes and surrounding traffic. The system includes a plurality of road vehicles. Each road vehicle includes a vehicle receiver, a vehicle controller, and a vehicle output device. The system also includes a plurality of traffic-signal sources and a plurality of signal emitters. Each signal emitter is associated to a corresponding traffic-signal source from the plurality of traffic-signal sources. Each signal emitter processes traffic signals from the corresponding traffic-signal source and sends the processed traffic signals to the vehicle receivers. The vehicle receivers receive signals from the plurality of signal emitters. The vehicle controller processes the signals received by the vehicle receiver. The vehicle output device executes instructions that are extracted from the signals processed by the vehicle controller.
