There is a link to an ongoing test in the downtown area of Tampa, FL. They’ve installed lidar near crosswalks; when a pedestrian is in a crosswalk it broadcasts a “pedestrian in crosswalk” signal that nearby compatible cars hear (they’ve installed receivers in 1000 cars).
- panick21_ 2y agoHow to waste the maximal amount of money for minimal benefit. Lidar at ever intersection. The idiocy is incrdible.
- Kon-Peki 2y agoI'm totally in support for reserving RF spectrum for this and can imagine many scenarios where low-cost, low-power RF transmissions would improve road safety (I've just braked really hard; I've just crashed; I'm an emergency vehicle stopped in the road; etc). But yeah, lidar at every intersection is just plain bonkers.
