The Goal is to provide the OBU with the speed limit information and the next downstream NYCWiN intersection SPaT backhaul to TMC and information. We expect CV Core Services the parameters for the alerts to be modified by time-of-day and traffic OBU evaluates conditions. data and provides driver with information regarding optimal speed NYC CV Pilot Deployment Program 19 Red Light Violation Warning CV App vehicle-based advisories, alerts, and warnings that notify the driver of an upcoming red signal and the potential of violating the red light NYC CV Pilot Deployment Program 20 Pedestrian in Signalized Crosswalk Warning CV App Pedestrian Warning Application for Uses fixed infrastructure Transit Vehicles detection (to be added) and Option 2 Pedestrian Detection CV technology to notify System approaching vehicles of pedestrians that have intent or are presently in a crosswalk. Pedestrian Detection System This maybe also used in Option 2 Smart phone applications to Traffic Signal Controller identify pedestrians depending on accuracy of location. Local Safety System / Processor NOTE: Option 1 – This option includes RSE sending an alert when the crosswalk signal has been SPaT Message and activated. MapData Message Option 2 – This option includes the use of a pedestrian detection system to detect the presence of a pedestrian in the crosswalk.

RSE can warn depending on PED location etc. This is a development effort; the NYCVPD will be working selected stakeholders to establish the applications and infrastructure to support these.
