In the Netherlands, an innovative app has been developed to enhance the testing and acceptance of Intelligent Vehicle-Roadside Interaction Systems (iVRIs). This app provides drivers with continuous, location-specific in-car information, ensuring a safer and more efficient driving experience. The app delivers real-time updates on static and dynamic speed limits, lane configurations, overtaking restrictions, and traffic light signals. Moreover, it offers predictions about the next signal phase, allowing drivers to anticipate traffic flow changes.
One of the standout features of this app is its ability to request priority at suitable iVRIs. Users can configure the app to assume the role of various vehicle types, such as an NHD (Networked High-Demand) vehicle, a bus, or a truck, each of which may have priority at certain traffic signals. This functionality not only improves the efficiency of public transport and freight movement but also contributes to reducing congestion and enhancing overall traffic management.
