Health Advantages of Adaptive Control
An Intelligent Solution to Promote Wellbeing
From reduced air pollution to a less stressful commute, adaptive control technologies offer a healthier and happier driving experience.
How It Works:
Adaptive control optimizes signal timing by making timing adjustments based on current demand and system capacity. Deriving signal timing from existing traffic conditions, adaptive control responds to demand, providing the most efficient, smoothest route possible.
Reducing the time and stress associated with commuting, adaptive control technology can yield awesome health benefits, like:
>> Improved air quality, made possible through a reduction in idling and stop-and-go traffic, resulting in a possible 4-7% decrease in fuel waste and consumption. A benefit that's easy on your wallet, the environment, and your lungs!
>> Reduced stress via decreased congestion. A smoother trip can help reduce the stress associated with getting to a given destination on-time. Additionally, adaptive signal control technology provides a more predictable experience to help make commute planning easier.
>> Enhanced safety through better intersection efficiencies. Reducing the number of stops and starts helps decrease the chances of a fender bender.
>> Healthier choices, thanks to more free time, compliments of decreased travel times. Commuters have more time to focus on making healthier lifestyle choices, such as getting outdoors and participating in healthy activities. |
