Driver Safety System Using Machine Learning
A traffic routing display system provides a visual display of the expected state of an upcoming traffic light. In one aspect, the display is an icon colored to correspond to the expected state. In another aspect, the time remaining before the state of a traffic light changes is displayed. The effect that an indicator has on driver behavior is used to determine the type of indicator to provide to the driver. Certain indicators may not be displayed by the system depending on the effect they have on the driver.
1 . A display system for a mobile traffic system, the display system comprising:
a visual display relating to an upcoming traffic signal; and
an indicator of a state of the traffic signal at a specific time, the indicator being responsive to a driver safety issue.
2 . The display system of claim 1 , wherein the indicator indicates time remaining before the traffic signal changes state.
3 . The display system of claim 1 , wherein the mobile traffic system is configured to determine an effect that the indicator has on driver behavior.
4 . The display system of claim 3 , wherein the visual display omits the indicator based on the effect that the indicator has on driver behavior.
5 . The display system of claim 1 , further comprising a machine learning module configured to collect driver safety history and modify operation of the indicator based on the driver safety history.
6 . The display system of claim 5 , wherein the driver safety history is based on a single driver.
7 . The display system of claim 5 , wherein the driver safety history is based on a plurality of drivers.
8 . A computer-implemented method for providing a driver with traffic-related information, the computer-implemented method comprising:
providing on a mobile display system a visual display relating to an upcoming traffic signal; and
providing an indicator of a state of the traffic signal at a specific time, the indicator being responsive to a driver safety issue.
9 . The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , wherein the indicator indicates time remaining before the traffic signal changes state.
10 . The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising determining an effect that the indicator has on driver behavior.
11 . The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , further comprising omitting the indicator based on the effect that the indicator has on driver behavior.
12 . The computer-implemented method of claim 8 , further comprising collecting driver safety history and modifying operation of the indicator based on the driver safety history.
13 . The computer-implemented method of claim 12 , wherein the driver safety history is based on a single driver.
14 . The computer-implemented method of claim 12 , wherein the driver safety history is based on a plurality of drivers.
