February 5: Press Relearse -Crossing Pedestrian Sensing Alert System-

Prof. NAkamura, Kictec Co., Ltd. and ORIENTAL CONSULTANTS Co., Ltd. cooperatively developed the system which alert drivers to crossing pedestrian/cyclists at unsignalized crosswalks for improving their safety. In this system, when sensors detect crossing pedestrian/cyclists at crosswalks, electric bulletin board and rivets start flushing to make drivers aware of that. Currently, this systems are implemented in Kouch-prefecture.
