Commuting to and from work can be a nightmare. Cars advance slowly in stop and go traffic, crawling from
one traffic jam at stoplights to the next. At peak rush hour especially, there is no chance of sailing through a series
of green lights. Now, thanks to artificial intelligence, German researchers have found a way to reduce time spent at
the crossroads.
Called the KI4LSA project and funded by the Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure, the innovation
is being tested. Scientists first studied algorithms taken from a busy intersection to learn about traffic patterns and
where improvements were most needed. Then, the technology, using high-resolution cameras and radar sensors,
more precisely captured the actual traffic situation and detected the average speed of the cars and their waiting
times. Finally, the AI uses deep enhanced learning algorithms to calculate the best switching behaviour for the
traffic lights and determine the best phase sequence to shorten waiting times at the crossroads.
The results are encouraging when it is being tried out at a busy intersection in Lemgo, Germany. The
intelligent lights are said to improve traffic flow by 10 to 15 percent, which results in money saved; the EU
estimates that traffic jams create economic damage that adds up to 100 billion euros a year. Aside from reducing
commuting time, these traffic lights will reduce noise and CO2 emissions from cars waiting at the crossroads.
Another exciting development in this research is the K14PED project, which studies pedestrians crossing the
crossroads. Using AI as well as a 3D points cloud, researchers can identify how many people are waiting at a
pedestrian crossing and whether some of the disabled or elder people will need extra time to cross the street. Such a
needs-based system could reduce pedestrian waiting time by 30 percent, which could then decrease jaywalking ( 乱
