Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pedestrian guidance system, and more particularly, to a pedestrian pedestrian guidance system that can be safely used by a general pedestrian or a visually impaired person, And to provide a pedestrian guidance system capable of preventing traffic accidents by alarming the surrounding vehicles.
In general, various campaigns and measures are being proposed to reduce traffic accidents. Since traffic accidents are serious problems related to people's lives, various safety devices are being developed, and many devices and systems related to pedestrian traffic lights are being developed, especially on pedestrian crossings.
A large number of traffic accidents occur on the crosswalk. Most traffic accidents that occur on the crosswalk are caused by the carelessness of the driver, but there are also many due to carelessness of the pedestrian. For example, when a pedestrian is attempting to cross before a gait light turns to a green light that allows crossing, or even when a green light that allows crossing is turned off, the gait signal of a pedestrian crossing may go to a red light Even in the lit state, pedestrians are often exposed to dangerous situations, such as entering a driveway in a hasty mind, waiting in a roadway, and not waiting in a safe car. Therefore, there is a need to ventilate the pedestrian so that the pedestrian is not exposed to danger.
In the pedestrian crossing, a pedestrian voice guidance device for ventilating the surroundings so as not to be exposed to danger is disclosed in Korean Patent Registration No. 10-0372095. A transverse walkway voice guidance apparatus disclosed in Korean Patent No. 10-0372095 includes human body detection means for detecting a human body; A gait signal light sensing means for sensing a gait signal state of a pedestrian crossing; Control means for controlling the human body sensing means to generate a predetermined warning sound when the human body sensing means senses the human body in a state in which the red light of the walking signal or the like is lit up; And voice processing means for outputting a warning sound through a speaker under the control of the control means.
On the other hand, the crosswalk is equipped with various devices and facilities to help the disabled person to move to the desired place and to view the desired work with the power of the disabled, so that the disabled can perform social activities. Among the typical facilities for the visually impaired, there is an acoustic signaling device for the visually impaired, which is installed on a gait signal and informs the user of the presence of a crossing by a dial tone.
The acoustic signaler is an acoustic indication of the lighting status of the gait signal because the visually impaired can not see the traffic light on the pedestrian crossing. In other words, the lights of the red lights and the lights of the blue lights are generated by different sounds or by voice, so that the visually impaired hears sound and voice guidance and crosses the crosswalk. The acoustic signaling device for a visually impaired person is installed to be able to be driven when a sound signal operating button provided on a support of a walking signal lamp is pressed, for example. In the pedestrian crossing, the gait lights are installed on both the waiting side and the opposite side, and both the gait lights send and receive with the prescribed radio signal. In Korea, gait signals transmit and receive signals at a frequency of 235.3 MHz.
Therefore, when one acoustic signal activating button is pressed, it is notified that the acoustic signal for the visually impaired is driven to the gait signal provided on the opposite side with the radio wave signal of 235.3 MHz. The audible signal for the visually impaired is different from the warning sound on the opposite side and the warning sound on the opposite side so that the visually handicapped person crosses the pedestrian crossing and finds that he is getting closer to the opposite traffic light.
The audible signal for the visually impaired informs the gait signal of the pedestrian crossing with a blue indicator light as an acoustic signal only when the acoustic signal activating button provided on the support of the gait signal is pressed. On the other hand, a pedestrian voice guidance device is a device for letting a pedestrian who wants to cross a pedestrian crossway to wait indoors while the red light is on, and to safely cross the pedestrian crosswalk while the blue light is on.
The conventional pedestrian transit voice guidance apparatus configured as described above is provided with an acoustic signal activating button for a visually impaired person in a general pedestrian crossing system so as to guide the visually impaired person to the acoustic path. Or a pedestrian warning in case of a violation of a pedestrian signal, the safety of pedestrian crossing is limited.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a pedestrian warning device for providing pedestrian crossing information to a general pedestrian or visually impaired person, And an alarm means capable of notifying the presence of a walking signal violator in the surrounding driving vehicle.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a crosswalk guidance system with improved safety and function as compared with the conventional crosswalk guidance system.
In order to achieve these objects, the crosswalk guidance system of the present invention,
A first monitoring means for monitoring the first area on the pedestrian crossing, a second monitoring means for pedestrians for monitoring the second area on the pedestrian crossing, a pedestrian crossing voice guidance device, A central control device for controlling the pedestrian transit voice guidance device in accordance with a signal received from the first monitoring means for the pedestrian and the second monitoring means for the pedestrian, and a signal input from the second monitoring means for the pedestrian to the central control device And an alarm device for selectively outputting a light signal to the traveling vehicle around the crosswalk.
Further, the present invention is further characterized by a signal input means for a visually impaired person which can be connected to the central control apparatus via a wired or wireless communication.
In the pedestrian transit voice guidance apparatus, a pedestrian guidance mode and a visually impaired guidance mode are constituted. When the pedestrian guidance signal input means and the central control apparatus are connected, So that the voice guidance is performed.
The first area is set at a boundary between the guide and the roadway on both sides of the bridgewalk, and the second area is set at the center part on the crosswalk with the first area on both sides.
The first monitoring means for the pedestrian and the second monitoring means for the pedestrian may comprise at least one of an ultrasonic sensor, an infrared sensor, a laser sensor and an image sensing device.
Further, the first monitoring means for the pedestrian, the second monitoring means for the pedestrian, the pedestrian voice guidance device, and the central control device are fixed to a control box and a signal lamp supporter to which the walking signal lamp is installed .
