Future work

What we’reworking on next.

Gapvera is a prototype. Here’s the work between it and a signal at a real intersection.

  1. Now

    In progress.

    1. Concept image of headlights reflecting on a rain-soaked intersection at dusk.01

      Night and weather

      Test detection and speed estimates in darkness, rain, and low sun, when cameras see the least.

    2. Concept image of a tripod-mounted measurement camera observing an approaching car positioned within its lane.02

      Measured accuracy

      Compare estimated arrival times with measured ones, so the margin behind Clear comes from data.

    3. Concept aerial view of an empty four-way intersection with two-lane approaches and crosswalks.03

      More intersections

      Cover more approach angles, lane counts, and camera positions than the two in our footage.

  2. Next

    Once the basics hold up.

    1. Concept image of two pedestrians crossing a striped crosswalk.04

      People in the crosswalk

      Hold Wait while someone is crossing the street you’re turning into, not only when a car is coming.

    2. Design concept for a graphite traffic indicator with a pale green lens.05

      Signal design

      Work with traffic engineers on an indicator that fits the MUTCD and reads at a glance.

    3. Concept image of wiring and control modules inside a roadside traffic cabinet.06

      Controller integration

      Read the signal phase, so Gapvera only lights up during permissive left turns.

  3. Later

    At a real intersection.

    1. Concept image of an unlit Gapvera indicator mounted to the left of both conventional traffic lights, with an existing camera above the signal mast arm.07

      Silent field pilot

      Run at a partner intersection with the light off, logging every decision. Switch it on once the logs hold up.
