Mobile FLOW readout and mobile FLOW sequencer features

摘要

An invention regarding traffic management is disclosed. A system that tells motorist how fast to go in order to make it through a traffic signal while it is green serves one or more lanes in one or more directions. A Fast Lane On Warning (FLOW) sequencer is in synchronization with traffic phases sequencer (sequencing Red, Green, Yellow, Left Turn and the like) with both sequencers having service cycle period Pi but with start times of both sequencers offset from one another. The FLOW sequencer outputs data, particularly status of signal or “Signal Phase And Timing: SPAT” through wireless means to a mobile receiver/calculator/readout aboard the approaching vehicle. The receiver/calculator/readout also receives data of its location or whereabouts, particularly its distance to the intersection. The receiver calculator readout processes the two incoming data types considering “distance” and “time left” and gives an output of digital, graphic, audio or the like as to how fast the motorist should go to make it through during green.
