Abstract
The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is spending millions of dollars to install new warning system technology on highways across the state. The warning system is designed to notice slow or stopped traffic and trigger a roadside message board to visually warn drivers of upcoming slow traffic. Thirteen highway sites will have the warning systems installed, and the estimated cost for each warning system ranges from US
${\$}$
300,000 to US
${\$}$
600,000 per site, depending on factors such as running utilities. This means ODOT will spend between US
${\$}$
3.9 million and US
${\$}$
7.8 million to pay for the new technology. It will take two years for ODOT to complete installation at all 13 sites.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine is a premier publication that features peer-reviewed articles showcasing advancements in areas of interest to the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society. Our scope encompasses theoretical, experimental, application, and operational aspects of electrical and electronic engineering relevant to motor vehicles and associated land transportation infrastructure. This includes technologies for terrestrial mobile vehicular services, components, systems, and auxiliary functions within motor vehicles, as well as components and systems used in both automated and non-automated facets of ground transport technology. The magazine focuses on intra-vehicular components, systems, and applications, offering tutorials, surveys, coverage of emerging technology, and serving as a platform for communication between the IEEE VTS governing body and its membership. Join us in exploring the latest developments in vehicular technology.
