The Human Sensor Vehicle Traffic Control with In-vehicle Notification is a vehicle traffic preemption system that employs the Microsoft's Kinect technology to implement a real-time human controlled traffic override system through use of body gestures to control traffic light systems by a traffic warden and at the same time, broadcasts traffic control data right into vehicles equipped with appropriate receiving devices. This system is designed for use in both Fixed-Time and Dynamic controlled traffic systems. Basically, the present technology serves three purposes to wit: 1 Emergency Vehicle Traffic Preemption for Fire engines and Ambulances 2 Alteration of traffic light systems based on varying traffic conditions such as time of day or for special circumstances such as major events or any other circumstances causing unusual traffic demands. 3 Broadcast of traffic conditions to drivers right inside the vehicles.
