Abstract

There is a design of an expressway lighting and early warning system based on MCU, and the corresponding control method is proposed in this paper. The system and its control method can realize the lighting and direction guidance of the vehicles on the expressway under different situations. The different colors of lights are used to remind the vehicle of the different driving situation. The emergent buttons and GSM module can realize help-calling for people in distress in the expressway and can also be used for road maintenance personnel to locate the worker and check on work attendance. The system and its control method can also realize the vehicle counting function and the calculation of magnitude of traffic flow.
