How Traffic lights change color
I did a fun research about how the traffic lights change
colors.
The controls are fixed time control and Dynamic Control.
Fixed time control means both traffic lights get the same
amount of time to go cross the road.
Dynamic control means if there are more cars on one side
they get more time to go cross the road. The traffic light knows because there
are detectors on the street.
There are 3 detectors in dynamic control.
In-pavement detectors mean there are detectors buried in or
under the roadway.
Non-intrusive detectors mean cost effective are installed
over the road way.
Non-motorized user detectors mean when you press the button
there is a detector so it will show a white man that means to walk. If there is
a red hand that means to stop.
I hope you liked learning how the light turn red.
