PUBLIC SAFETY APPLICATIONS

GOAL IS TO REDUCE TRAFFIC ACCIDENTS, RESULTING IN:

	FEWER INJURIES AND FATALITIES
	LOWER DIRECT AND INDIRECT FINANCIAL COSTS
	REDUCED TRAFFIC CONGESTION

The overall goal of a Public Safety application is to reduce accidents. Such reduction has many benefits beyond the obvious saving of lives. Even a non-injury accident can significantly increase traffic congestion and result in significant cost, not only to those involved, but also to society as a whole such as through the increased demands on public services.

TYPICAL EXAMPLES ARE:

	FORWARD OBSTACLE DETECTION AND AVOIDANCE
	LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
	TURN ACCIDENT WARNINGS
	INTERSECTION COLLISION WARNING
	AUTOMATED, VARIABLE MESSAGE SIGNS
