摘要: |
The Controller Interface Device (CID) has been a major focus of the NIATT Center for Traffic Operation and Controls for the past several years, leading to the commercial release of the CID II. Several projects related to further CID development have since followed; however, all deal more with evolutionary changes to the CID or the development applications utilizing the CID. The CID technology fills a relatively small niche in the traffic control market. While a number of research applications and some evolutionary changes to the CID hardware platform are yet to be made, the CID is at the point where further hardware development is probably not needed. The key future developments related to the CID will be in the area of software development. Future developments will be driven by the traffic applications and could require some tinkering with the CID. However, further NIATT involvement in CID development should be limited to supporting current NIATT projects or externally funded CID development. A better avenue would be to pursue a new hardware and software co-development direction, perhaps the plug and play intersection concept. |
