“We continually strive to find new ways to leverage data to make cities
smarter, transportation safer, and farmlands more sustainable and
productive,” said
Built on Iteris’ patented SmartCycle® solution, which differentiates between bicycles and vehicles at intersections, the SmartCycle Bike Indicator is another first-of-its-kind innovation.
Leveraging SmartCycle’s bicycle detection algorithm, the SmartCycle Bike Indicator is a device that mounts onto traffic signals and illuminates when cyclists waiting at an intersection have been detected. This means the cyclist does not need to risk dismounting into a busy road and pressing a button to cross the intersection. It also reassures them that when they do get a green signal it will give them sufficient time to make it across.
