Ensuring the safety of pedestrians on the roadway
Observing the situation on the roads connecting the administrative centers of the subjects of different countries, where cars are gaining high speed, it is easy to detect a problem for pedestrians. Very often it is difficult for them to cross the road, especially in conditions of poor visibility, because drivers picking up high speed can not always see the pedestrian, thereby exposing him to high danger. This situation is observed both at pedestrian crossings without a traffic light, and with the presence of a traffic light. But much more often, at those crossings where there is no traffic light. And this is a big problem, both for pedestrians and for drivers too. As a result of such observations, the idea came up to develop a security system at the pedestrian crossing
The idea is to install steam generators from which a steam curtain will be produced, and an image with a "STOP" warning will be projected onto it using short-focus projectors.
A pedestrian who intends to cross the road presses a button mounted on a pole , the system is triggered by releasing steam, warning both directions of movement. Also, a motion sensor is installed on the asphalt, at the border of the pedestrian crossing, which will similarly give a command to the system that the pedestrian has started moving
The entire system is powered by solar panels mounted above the pedestrian crossing on poles that store energy with the help of the sun. It is an economical and reliable power supply system.In addition, it is environmentally friendly. Moisture intake for the steam generator is made from the ground. The controller responsible for switching the system to operating mode is installed in the same box with the moisture storage device under the ground. Steam generators are installed at a height sufficient for the movement of large-sized vehicles
