Abstract

A device for warning motorists of an approaching location wherein a roadside vehicle speed detector is located includes a GPS sensor providing real time coordinate data identifying the location of the vehicle, and a memory holding a local database of coordinate data identifying the geographical locations of roadside vehicle speed detectors. Means are then provided for computing from a comparison of the real time and stored data the position of the vehicle relative to the speed detectors, and a warning signal is generated and/or displayed whenever the computing means determines that the vehicle is within a predetermined distance of one or more of the speed detectors. The predetermined distance may be speed-dependent. The device may also store speed limits and determine the vehicle's speed using the GPS, and only warn the driver if he is exceeding the speed limit. The device may also store the direction in which detectors face, and only warn the driver if he is moving in a direction liable to detection. The database may be downloaded from a central server.

Description

1 2353650 DETECTION WARNING SYSTEMS Excessive speeds of road vehicles are
a well-known cause of road accidents, particularly in certain areas, such as areas close to schools, or areas often referred to as "accident blackspote. In an effort to curb speeding in these areas, the police may install a roadside vehicle speed detector. However, although such a detector wiJI detect vehicles travelling at excessive speeds, it cannot curb speeding unless a driver voluntarily reduces speed when approaching the detector.
According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a device for warning motorists of an approaching location wherein a roadside vehicle speed detector is located, the device comprising means for sensing the geographical location of a moving vehicle and providing real time coordinate data identifying the said location; a memory holding a local database of coordinate data identifying the geographical locations of roadside vehicle speed detectors, means for computing from a comparison of the real time and stored data the position of the vehicle relative to the speed detectors, and means for generating and/or displaying a warning signal whenever the computing means determines that the vehicle is within a predetermined distance of one or more of the speed detectors. The predetermined distance may be a fixed distance but is preferably computed as a function of the vehicle speed so that at higher speeds the distance is greater. The location of the vehicle is preferably sensed by a GPS unit and the vehicle speed is preferably computed by the GPS unit.
Preferably the database is adapted to store not only the location of a vehicle speed detector but also the speed limit imposed in the zone in which the detector is located, the orientation of the speed detector, and the type of detector. Using this stored data, the device can inhibit generation and/or display of a warning signal if a vehicle in which the device is installed is travelling at a speed within the imposed speed limit when the computing means determines that the vehicle has approached to within range of the detector. Moreover, a warning signal is also inhibited if the detector is not orientated in a direction that will detect the vehicle as it passes within 2 range of the detector. This is achieved by comparing the vehicle heading with the orientation of the detector. If the vehicle heading indicates that the vehicle is travelling along a highway which will pass within range of the detector but on which there is no speed limit, the warning is inhibited. Finally, if the stored data indicates that the speed detector is of the type where a vehicle is timed between two detectors spaced apart from one another, a warning signal is maintained as the vehicle travels between the two detectors even though both detectors may be out of range.
Preferably, the warning device further comprises means for connecting the local database to a remote central server via a telecommunication link or computer network, the server updating the local database with freshly learned data from a master database when the link is established.
By way of example only, a warning device embodying the invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawing in which the sole figure is a schematic overview of the device.
Referring to this drawing, a non-volatile memory 10 holds a local database consisting of latitude/longitude coordinates identifying the geographical locations of speed cameras in areas where it has been predetermined that excessive vehicle speeds should be avoided. The local database is built-up by determining the various locations and entering the appropriate coordinates into the memory. Additional information entered in the memory includes the date on which the coordinates were entered or last updated, the restricted speed zone within which the camera is located, the bearing of the camera, and the type of camera. Camera types include GATSCO and SPECS.
The warning device also includes a global positioning system (GPS) engine 12 that picks up satellite signals on an antenna and computes accurate real time latitude and longitude coordinates identifying the geographical location of a vehicle in which the device is fitted. Alternatively the geographical location might be determined by a 3 mobile phone triangulation system. A microprocessor and high speed search engine 14 then compares the real time coordinates with the coordinates stored in the local database of the memory 10 and determines when the vehicle is within a predetermined distance or range of a speed camera. The GPS engine 12 may also compute the speed of the vehicle so that the device generates a warning signal at a distance from the camera dependant on the vehicle speed. Accordingly at higher speeds a warning signal is generated at a great distance from the camera. The user has the option of selecting either distance ranging or speed dependent ranging using a processor 16 connected to the microprocessor 14. With distance ranging, the user is able to select a desired range of their choice, and a warning signal is generated whenever the vehicle is within this range of a speed camera. Alternatively, with speed dependent ranging, the user selects a time interval within which the vehicle would reach a speed camera if continuing to travel at the same speed, and a warning signal is first generated at the start of this time interval.
The digital warning signal generated by the nficroprocessor 14 may be converted to analogue form before being output through processor 16 to a visual warning device 15 andlor to an audio warning device 17. The visual warning device may comprise, for example, a single LED, a series of LED's or a liquid crystal display.
A remote synchronise engine 19 is connected to the microprocessor 14 to provide formatted data when the local database is updated with newly learned data from a master database located at a remote central server 21. To permit updating of the local database, the device includes a modem 18 so that when the device is removed from the vehicle in which it is installed it can be plugged into a standard telephone network PSTN 20 or ISDN 23 with automatic dialling to connect the local database to the master database in the remote server 2 1. The remote synchronise engine 19 is the intelligence behind the updating procedure and ensures that only newly learned data in the master database is downloaded to the local database, thereby reducing the time required for an update. A remote central server 21 is operated by 4 each of the retailers distributing the warning device and provides user information, user settings, product information, product monitoring, user databases, a filter engine database, a speed camera location reporting system, a synchronize engine and a port array engine, as well as storing the master database of speed camera locations.
The warning device includes a push button 22 or a similar manually operable actuator providing an input to the remote synchronise engine 19, the button being actuated whenever a person travelling in a vehicle in which the device is fitted observes a speed camera at a location which is not on the local database. A real time clock counter in the engine 19 provides a signal indicating the time at which such an observation is made and the position of the vehicle at that time. This information is initially stored in the local database 10 and then transferred to the central server when the telephone connection is made.
The warning device additionally includes a PC interface 24 to enable communication with the remote central server through a computer network including a RS-232 interface 25. Other types of connection may include I-DA (infrared communication standard), and GSM.
The remote synchronise engine 19 may also act as a database watchdog providing data security, redundancy and fault tolerance.
The n-dcroprocessor 14 includes means for comparing the computed speed of the vehicle with the speed limit of the speed zone stored in the local database 10 whenever a speed camera comes within range of the warning device, and means for inhibiting generation of a warning signal if the computed speed is within the speed limit.
The microprocessor 14 further includes means for comparing the heading of the vehicle determined by the GPS engine 12 with the "camera facinj bearing of the speed camera stored in the local database 10 whenever a speed camera comes within range of the warning device, and means for inhibiting generation of a warning signal if the heading and the bearing indicate that the vehicle is not travelling in a direction for which the camera is orientated.
The microprocessor 14 further includes means responsive to a signal from the local database 10 indicating that the type of camera within range is one wherein at least two cameras are spaced apart to detect the vehicle speed. In response to such a signal, the microprocessor maintains the generated warning signal when the computed geographical location of the vehicle is outside the range of any one of the cameras but lies between two of the cameras.
If the GPS engine 12 is operating off-line (for example inside a long tunnel), the microprocessor 14 generates a warning signal in response to the history of the vehicle speed and heading, for example on the basis of the speed and heading as it enters a tunnel. To distinguish off-line warning signals from normal warning signals, the visual display 15 may display an amber signal rather than the normal red signal.
