The Significance and Effect of the Traffic System Signaling to the Environment, Present and Future Traffic

Lengyel, Henrietta / Szalay, Zsolt

Abstract The development of automotive technologies brings new features such as the emergence of autonomous vehicles and an advanced infrastructure, but is a big challenge for the professionals. In this paper we present the currently used signs on the different road sections. We describe the significance of signaling systems for the present and future traffic, especially from the point of view road safety and environment. We analyzed the used traffic signs recognition systems how them can identify the signals in the traffic. Particular emphasis is placed on the benefits, the importance and the problems that arise in recognizing systems. We will propose their development opportunities, and these will affect the pre-emergence period of fully autonomous vehicles when the vehicles are on lower autonomy level but at the same time the higher autonomy level vehicles are appear in the traffic. It has difficulties with the recognition systems and the emergence of autonomous vehicles. There may be problems with systems in different signaling systems. There are some other problems what need to find solution for example is the legal rules to the autonomous vehicles and different country has different looking traffic signs what is hard to recognize to the systems.
