Hardware

The crosswalk system is designed to overlay on top of the road with minimal change to the integrity of the asphalt (or alternatively can be directly inset). The overall height will be ADA compliant. The installation and modularity of the hardware allows for easy and inexpensive installation and maintenance.

The integrated detection system detects and distinguishes pedestrians, vehicles and bicycles in a more reliable way than cameras and other methods currently can.

Chips inside of the crosswalk use the detected traffic information to then trigger the flashing beacons, directly illuminate pedestrians, and send signals and data out for use in safety applications.

Our story

Data analytics

Currently, major cities collect a small percentage of vehicle traffic data in order to improve the flow of traffic. However, they do not capture all of it and most cities do not collect pedestrian data.
‍
Sensol’s crosswalks detect every person, vehicle and bicycle from their weight. This makes the detection system independent of lighting and weather conditions. It also cannot be used to track people using facial recognition. Traffic information information including pedestrian and vehicle speed and location is recorded and uploaded in real time to the Sensol cloud. The data in the Sensol cloud can be used by traffic management centers to better understand real time traffic patterns and design better roadways for all road users, not just cars. Furthermore, this data can be used by transportation applications such as google maps in order to better predict travel times and route planning.

Our story

Communication

Studies show that implementing automatic pedestrian sensing at crossings decreases vehicle-pedestrian near misses by up to 25%. However, existing systems are both unreliable in adverse weather conditions, and very expensive to install.

Sensol re-introduces pressure based systems in order to improve reliability and decrease costs.

FAQ Section

Dimensions?

Sensol covers the entire surface of the crosswalk with modular panels that are designed to be 2ft x 2ft. The panels are overlaid or inset on the road, and the overall height will be ADA compliant.

How does it work?

A system of sensors detect anything that passes over them and a computer distinguishes what is a pedestrian and what is not, then collecting the data and illuminating pedestrians. The spotlighting effect draws driver attention to the pedestrians as compared to current solutions which draw attention to the signage.

Accessibility?

The crosswalk is covered in anti-slip material which doubles as haptic signs for the visually impaired. The passive detection means the ADA community doesn't need to long press a button to cross safely. Ramps extending out to the sidewalks ensure no elevation change hinders any group from using the crosswalk.

Maintenance?

The crosswalk will know when a panel is damaged and alert maintenance. Maintenance which is done by local transit agencies is performed quickly and easily by replacing the damaged panels with new ones which we provide agencies.

Product Pricing?

Please contact us to find out more about pricing as each installation is unique to the crossing. The price of the hardware is comparable to that of RRFB while the installation is more affordable.

Hardware installation?

The crosswalk is installed on top of the existing road or installed inset, level with the road, depending on whether it is part of a repavement project or not. The actual installation involves bolting and adhering a support structure in which the modules can be easily placed and removed from.
