Audible traffic lights

Description

Tourcoing, like the rest of the Lille agglomeration, is equipped with sound traffic lights allowing visually impaired or blind people to cross. The system is simple:

  • A remote control with a button held by the person.

  • A sound system mounted on the lights.

When the person arrives at the fire, he presses the button on his remote control. At that time, two cases:

Red light: The audible message shall be ‘pedestrian red’.
Green light: the audible message shall be repetitive with 2 "ding dong" tones emitted throughout the duration of the lamp.
