Benefits of technology

[0011]The present invention is directed to an advanced wireless push button device which enables pedestrians to register a request for pedestrian signal from a distance and which helps the pedestrian maintain a correct path while crossing a street without depending on a compass for measuring the angle of orientation of the wireless push button device.

Problems solved by technology

However, there was no pedestrian push button system available which could be activated from a distance.
But, commercially available compasses may not give such accurate results.

Abstract

A system for registering pedestrian signal requests comprising receivers configured to broadcast wireless messages, wherein a first field of a first receiver location information message is occupied by a first receiver angle code defined for a first receiver corresponding to a first crosswalk of a traffic intersection and a second field of the first receiver advertisement packet is occupied by a first special code corresponding to the first receiver. An advanced wireless push button is configured to enable a first button to identify any wireless message to be the first receiver message if the first receiver angle code is found in the first field. On activation of the first button the advanced wireless push button transmits the first receiver angle code and, on receipt of the first receiver angle code, first receiver registers a request for a pedestrian signal for the first crosswalk if a walk signal is found off.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 529,547, filed Jul. 7, 2017, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to traffic control systems. More particularly, the present invention relates to advanced wireless push button for accessible pedestrian system.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]Different types of pedestrian traffic signal systems are known in the art for facilitating pedestrian movement across pedestrian crosswalks on the streets. These systems allow a pedestrian to actuate the pedestrian signal by operating a switch to bring the flow of traffic to a halt and to permit her to cross the street safely. To make the pedestrian signal systems accessible and user friendly to the physically challenged pedestrians, various attempts have been made in the past. However, there was no pedestrian push button system available which coul...
