A sensory sytem that recordes people approaching a traffic light crossing | |
A sensor in the traffic light can sence the body heat of the
people waiting to cross the road. The more poeople waiting
the quicker the lights change.

[gizmo] old bean! Long time, no post. |

Hi Phoenix.
The lights should also be able to sensor if you are blind
with a guide dog. The dog could have a beeper on it's
coller. |
|
|
Nice one, gizmo - about time our cities favoured pedestrians over vehicles. |
|
|
are dogs hotter than us teletub..., I mean people?
if so, do the guide dogs count as two or because they are littler? 1/2? |
|
|
well, although I do say so myself, I am pretty hot. |
|
|
Although, in my case, a guide dog obviously wouldn't go amiss... |
|
|
But, as Giz says, a chip in the collar of the guide dog would ensure that its owner gets preferential treatment anyway. |
|
|
pretty hot? or just promises, promises? |
|
|
Are you really back for a while, or is it some cruel april fool's trick? |
|
|
Howdy giz. This could also be done for summoning an elevator. |

Hi, [gizmo]. How's your mum? |
|
|
good PS I know the title has nothing to do with the idea |
|
|
I was wondering about that... |
|
|
hello giz, i'm guessing from the reaction that you were an old favorite? anyway, i like this...the buttons they put at some crosswalks for this purpose are probably intended to be a cruel joke. |
|
|
This is a bad idea. It means that pedestrians will have to travel in large groups to be able to cross the street. What it really means is that many of these people will begin using cars again. |
|
|
but if nobody crossed the road the lights would spend
most of their time on green |
