Electrical data processing system for monitoring or affecting movement of a vehicle using a traffic device
First Claim
1. A system comprising:
- an event data source comprising;
a processor;
a transceiver; and
first memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the event data source to;
transmit, via the transceiver and to a vehicle and infrastructure computing device, information indicative of an event affecting a portion of road; and
the vehicle and infrastructure computing device comprising;
a vehicle and infrastructure control computer;
second memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the vehicle and infrastructure control computer, cause the vehicle and infrastructure computing device to;
receive, from the event data source, the information indicative of the event affecting the portion of road, wherein the information indicative of the event affecting the portion of road comprises information indicative of a number of pedestrians associated with the event affecting the portion of road;
determine one or more traffic devices associated with the portion of road and configured to control traffic for the portion of road; and
based on the information indicative of the event affecting the portion of road comprising the information indicative of the number of pedestrians associated with the event affecting the portion of road, send, to the one or more traffic devices associated with the portion of road, instructions to change one or more characteristics of the one or more traffic devices.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for monitoring or affecting movement of a vehicle using a traffic device. An event data source may have a processor and/or a transceiver. The event data source may transmit, via the transceiver and to a vehicle and infrastructure computing device, information indicative of an event affecting a portion of road. The vehicle and infrastructure computing device may comprise a vehicle and infrastructure control computer. The vehicle and infrastructure computing device may receive, from the event data source, the information indicative of the event affecting the portion of road. The computing device may determine one or more traffic devices associated with the portion of road and configured to control traffic for the portion of road. Based on the information indicative of the event affecting the portion of road, the computing device may send, to the one or more traffic devices associated with the portion of road, instructions to change one or more characteristics of the one or more traffic devices.
