La presente invención se refiere a un sistema electrónico que tendrá la función de emitir 5 los distintos estados de los semáforos de peatones a través de balizas emisoras de estados y localización geográfica, gracias a la cual se consigue que las personas con discapacidad visual puedan recibir la información del estado del semáforo en tiempo real antes de cruzar la calle/vía. La recepción de la información se realizara desde un teléfono móvil con un sistema operativo que soporte sistema de comunicación inalámbrico 10 Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). The present invention relates to an electronic system that will have the function of emitting the different states of the pedestrian traffic lights through state emitting beacons and geographical location, thanks to which it is achieved that people with visual disabilities can receive the Traffic light status information in real time before crossing the street. The information will be received from a mobile phone with an operating system that supports 10 Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wireless communication system.

Sector de la técnica Technical sector

La invención se encuadra en el sector de la movilidad vial para peatones, concretamente 15 en sistemas de información para peatones con discapacidad visual. The invention is part of the road mobility sector for pedestrians, specifically in information systems for pedestrians with visual impairment.

Estado de la técnica State of the art

Actualmente, dentro de la movilidad vial para peatones con discapacidad visual existen 20 semáforos con señales acústicas que indican cuando el peatón puede cruzar la vía. También existen mandos a distancia para realizar una petición de cruce y activar el semáforo a estado "Verde" para que el peatón pueda cruzar la calle/vía. Currently, within the road mobility for pedestrians with visual disabilities there are 20 traffic lights with acoustic signals that indicate when the pedestrian can cross the road. There are also remote controls to make a crossing request and activate the traffic light to "Green" state so that the pedestrian can cross the street / track.

Sería, por tanto deseable obtener información del semáforo en tiempo real en un 25 dispositivo móvil que llevaría consigo el peatón. Este dispositivo móvil deberla ser un producto estándar de mercado con una aplicación informática especialmente diseñada para este colectivo. El hecho que sea para un colectivo de personas con discapacidad visual no excluye al resto de personas que quisieran usar esta misma aplicación informática y comunicar con el emisor de estados del semáforo de peatones. 30 It would therefore be desirable to obtain traffic information in real time on a mobile device that the pedestrian would carry. This mobile device should be a standard market product with a computer application specially designed for this group. The fact that it is for a group of people with visual disabilities does not exclude other people who would like to use this same computer application and communicate with the issuer of states of the pedestrian traffic light. 30

Por ello, la presente invención se centra en dos elementos; el dispositivo instalado en el interior del semáforo que actúa como emisor de estados y localización y la aplicación informática que se instalaría en los dispositivos móviles (smartphones). Therefore, the present invention focuses on two elements; the device installed inside the traffic light that acts as a transmitter of states and location and the computer application that would be installed on mobile devices (smartphones).

Este nuevo sistema está compuesto por una estación con tres balizas electrónicas que actuará como emisor por difusión de estados y localización. This new system is made up of a station with three electronic beacons that will act as a transmitter for state diffusion and location.

La tecnología electrónica utilizada por el emisor de estados se basa en los diseños de 45 unidades baliza estándar de mercado compatible con formato de datos iBeacon y preparado para disponer de todas las funciones necesarias para transmitir los estados de los semáforos a los dispositivos móviles de los peatones. The electronic technology used by the issuer of states is based on the designs of 45 standard market beacon units compatible with iBeacon data format and prepared to have all the necessary functions to transmit the states of traffic lights to pedestrian mobile devices .

Este emisor de estados usa sistema de comunicación Bluetooth LE a través del cual 50 envía los estados del semáforo a la aplicación cliente en tiempo real. This state transmitter uses Bluetooth LE communication system through which 50 sends the traffic light states to the client application in real time.

Hay una interface de conexión eléctrica entre los pilotos luminosos de estados (Rojo y Verde) y el emisor. Esta conexión sirve para recibir la información del estado del There is an electrical connection interface between the status lights (Red and Green) and the emitter. This connection is used to receive the status information of the

semáforo como entrada del emisor y emitirla como salida a través del sistema de comunicación Bluetooth LE desde el emisor. El formato de la transmisión inalámbrica de datos de la invención está basado en el formato iBeacon. traffic light as input of the transmitter and emit it as output through the Bluetooth LE communication system from the transmitter. The format of the wireless data transmission of the invention is based on the iBeacon format.

Desde el punto de vista de la instalación la estación emisor de estados será alojada en el 5 interior de la carcasa/alojamiento del propio semáforo, con su correspondiente antena emisora de la señal Bluetooth LE ubicada en el propio emisor. From the point of view of the installation, the state emitting station will be housed inside the housing / housing of the traffic light itself, with its corresponding emitting antenna of the Bluetooth LE signal located in the emitter itself.

Desde el punto de vista del cliente receptor de la señal, se trata de una aplicación informática que se instalará en el dispositivo móvil (smartphone) del peatón, a través de 10 esta aplicación permite obtener información del estado del semáforo, su identificación y su localización en tiempo real. Esta aplicación será instalable y compatible con los teléfonos móviles (smartphones) actuales disponibles en el mercado que soporten comunicaciones compatibles con Bluetooth LE y las balizas con formato iBeacon. From the point of view of the client receiving the signal, it is a computer application that will be installed on the mobile device (smartphone) of the pedestrian, through 10 this application allows to obtain information about the state of the traffic light, its identification and its location in real time. This application will be installable and compatible with current mobile phones (smartphones) available on the market that support Bluetooth LE compatible communications and beacons with iBeacon format.
