Translation of "Traffic sensor" in German

Similar to radar control in road traffic, a sensor measures the transit time of the radar signal.

German Offenlegungsschrift No. 195 37 619 discloses an arrangement for monitoring the traffic spacing of a motor vehicle which has at least one traffic spacing sensor for detecting an object approaching the vehicle and an associated signaling system responsive to the approach of an object which prevents, impedes or blocks the opening of at least one door of the vehicle, and/or indicates the approach by a signaling system.

In that arrangement, the traffic spacing sensor is designed and mounted to monitor essentially the traffic situation behind the vehicle.

Smartspector Aurora TM FC-1 is the one and only all-in-one traffic sensor worldwide having the capability to perceive motion and stopping of vehicles, gathering its identity by means of ANPR, and matching identification results with an internal database.

However, since moving objects on the right side of the vehicle may also be relevant, for example when turning right, merging back into the lane and parking in right hand traffic, the sensor system preferably has at least one first sensor and one second sensor on both sides of the vehicle.

According to another exemplary embodiment of the invention, a vehicle system is provided which further comprises an ADAS horizon reconstruction module designed to receive data from the ADAS horizon provider, which ADAS horizon reconstruction module comprises a further interface by means of which it can receive output of at least one element from the group consisting of a surroundings sensor, a vehicle sensor, a traffic reporting sensor or a telematics sensor and incorporate it in the reconstruction of the ADAS horizon.

According to another exemplary embodiment of the invention, a vehicle system is provided which comprises an ADAS horizon provider which provides an ADAS horizon for driver assistance, and an ADAS horizon reconstruction module designed to receive data from the ADAS horizon provider, wherein said ADAS horizon reconstruction module comprises a further interface by means of which it can receive output of at least one element from the group consisting of a surroundings sensor, a vehicle sensor, a traffic reporting sensor or a telematics sensor, and modifies the ADAS horizon on the basis of this output.

To assist a driver with maneuvering a vehicle in traffic, a corresponding sensor can be provided in a vehicle, which monitors the environment of the vehicle and which displays to the driver information about an obstacle located in the vicinity of the vehicle.

For example, direct cross-traffic between a sensor (for example, a rotation sensor) and a motor control of an electric motor can be provided in a drive control which would allow for the drive to be operated with a very short scanning time (corresponds to the time of a transmission cycle).

Smartspector Aurora TM FC-1 is the markets first all-in-one traffic sensor having the capability to perceive motion and stopping of a vehicle, gathering its identity by means of ANPR, and matching the identification result with an integrated database.

For example, a retailer could use a single-function foot traffic sensor to replace video analytics in measuring and improving the effectiveness of in-store displays.

TE Connectivity's (TE) RoadTrax Brass Linguini (BL) traffic sensor is designed for permanent or temporary installation into or onto the road surface for the collection of traffic data.

According to another exemplary embodiment, a method for controlling a vehicle system is provided which comprises the steps of: providing an ADAS horizon for driver assistance, and loading the output of at least one element from the group consisting of a surroundings sensor, a vehicle sensor, a traffic reporting sensor or a telematics sensor in an ADAS horizon reconstruction module designed to receive data from the ADAS horizon provider, and modifying the ADAS horizon on the basis of the information loaded in the ADAS horizon reconstruction module.

However, it's not just the fleets that generate valuable traffic information: sensors along the streets also measure the traffic flows.

All that is needed is basically the information on the road network and the position of the traffic sensors.

Three application scenarios were tested: Data glasses, networked traffic lights and sensors on ships.

A computer simulation for outside traffic and vehicle sensors is directly linked to the researched driver assistance function using standard interfaces.

German Offenlegungsschrift No. 196 47 283 discloses an arrangement for avoiding and/or minimizing collisions in road traffic which has sensors for sensing individual parts of the surroundings of a motor vehicle supplied with the arrangement.

Due to the higher speeds in formula sports compared to road traffic, the sensors have a measuring range of ± 150 g with a resolution of 0.1 g.

The device consists of two digital inputs/outputs for integration with external systems (sensors, traffic lights, etc.)

Reception of data from traffic sensors and environmental sensors (road condition, weather) is the essential base for monitoring).

The key components of the Smart Road are traffic management, structural sensors, environmental sensors, smart sensors, analytics & prediction & smart lighting.

In a vehicle for right hand traffic, the sensors are preferably situated on the left side of the vehicle, and in a vehicle for left hand traffic, they are situated on the right side of the vehicle.

Such traffic control systems monitor the traffic either by sensors in or on the road, or the traffic is observed manually.

The temporal prediction can take place, for example, by the use of external information such as GPS information regarding the intended route and/or by an analysis of the vehicle surroundings, for example by recognizing traffic signs, ADAS sensors, and/or by analyzing vehicle data such as slope sensors, steering angle sensors, etc.
