Methods and systems for managing traffic lights
A technique is directed to methods and systems for managing multiple traffic light devices. In some implementations, the method includes (1) receiving a request for route planning for a vehicle; (2) determining a location of the vehicle; (3) planning a route for the vehicle at least based on the request and a set of rules; and (4) implementing the route for the vehicle by communicating with one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route. In some implementations, the set of rules includes a subscription plan associated with the vehicle, and the subscription plan is indicative of an assigned priority of the vehicle.
1. A method, comprising:
receiving, at a server, a subscription plan associated with a vehicle;
generating, at the server, a route for the vehicle at least based on a location of the vehicle and the subscription plan associated with the vehicle, and wherein the subscription plan is indicative of an assigned priority of the vehicle; and
implementing, at the server, the route for the vehicle by communicating with one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
determining, at the server, the location of the vehicle by communicating with at least one of the multiple traffic light devices.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising generating the route based on a characteristic of the vehicle.
4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the characteristic of the vehicle includes a status, a type, or a performance of the vehicle.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the multiple traffic light devices along the route are configured to communicate with the server in a specific frequency band.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the specific frequency band is a CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) band.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein each of the multiple traffic light devices includes a controller, a traffic light module, and a camera module.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein implementing, at the server, the route for the vehicle comprises:
instructing the one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route to grant access to the vehicle upon detecting the vehicle approaches the one or more of multiple traffic light devices.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein planning, at the server, the route for the vehicle at least based on the request and a set of rules comprises:
deviating the vehicle to a point of interests (POI) based on an advertisement plan.
10. A computing system comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computing system to perform a process comprising:
receiving a subscription plan associated with a vehicle;
generating a route for the vehicle at least based on a location of the vehicle and the subscription plan associated with the vehicle, and wherein the subscription plan is indicative of an assigned priority of the vehicle; and
implementing, at the server, the route for the vehicle by communicating with one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route.
11. The computing system of claim 10 , wherein the process further comprises:
determining the location of the vehicle by communicating with at least one of the multiple traffic light devices.
12. The computing system of claim 10 , wherein the process further comprises generating the route at least based on a characteristic of the vehicle.
13. The computing system of claim 12 , wherein the characteristic of the vehicle includes a status, a type, or a performance of the vehicle.
14. The computing system of claim 10 , wherein the multiple traffic light devices along the route are configured to communicate with the computing system in a CBRS (Citizens Broadband Radio Service) band.
15. The computing system of claim 10 , wherein the process further comprises:
instructing the one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route to grant access to the vehicle upon detecting the vehicle approaches the one or more of multiple traffic light devices.
16. The computing system of claim 10 , wherein the process further comprises:
deviating the vehicle to a point of interests (POI) based on an advertisement plan.
17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:
receiving a subscription plan associated with a vehicle;
generating a route for the vehicle at least based on a location of the vehicle and the subscription plan associated with the vehicle, and wherein the subscription plan is indicative of an assigned priority of the vehicle; and
implementing the route for the vehicle by communicating with one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route.
18. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise:
determining the location of the vehicle by communicating with at least one of the multiple traffic light devices.
19. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise:
instructing the one or more of multiple traffic light devices along the route to grant access to the vehicle upon detecting the vehicle approaches the one or more of multiple traffic light devices.
20. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the operations further comprise:
deviating the vehicle to a point of interests (POI) based on an advertisement plan.
