| 摘要： | The purpose of the augmented Speed Enforcement (aSE) project was to detect and warn speeding vehicles in a work zone and provide warnings to work zone workers. The system developed by Montana State University consists of 28 orange traffic drums (called smart drums or sDrums) that were positioned adjacent to the orange cones marking the work zone lane closure. When the system detects a speeding vehicle approaching, it synchronously flashes the orange lights on top of the drums, warning the driver to slow down and the workers of a speeding vehicle. If the vehicle speed is above a set trigger speed, the system activates a pager system that warns the workers of the speeding vehicle. The results of the project are a system of 30+ smart traffic drums was developed, the system was tested for four weeks on SR 152 near Los Banos, CA, the system detected speeding vehicles and synchronously flashed the warning lights, the pagers vibrated at the detection of a vehicle traveling 20 mph over the speed limit and daily deployment and retrieval of the system was labor intensive. Evaluation of speed data appears to show that the system does have an impact in reducing overall average speed and percentage of vehicles traveling at high speeds. |
