This paper focuses on the development of such an infrastructure unit, that is specifically designed for a pedestrian crossing junction. It can control traffic lights at the junction by real-time environment perception through its sensors and can optimize the flow of vehicles and passing vulnerable road users (VRUs). Moreover, it can assist on-road vehicles by providing real-time information and critical warnings via a v2x module. This paper further describes different use-cases of the work, all major hardware components involved in the development of smart infrastructure unit, referred to as an edge, different sensor fusion approaches using the camera, radar, and lidar mounted on the edge for environment perception, various modes of communication including v2x, system design UR - https://doi.org/10.5220/0011068800003191 KW - Road Side Unit (RSU) KW - Smart Infrastructure KW - Radar KW - LiDAR KW - Camera KW - Perception KW - Sensor Data Fusion KW - Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) KW - Communication KW - Simulation KW - ITS Y1 - 2022 UR - https://doi.org/10.5220/0011068800003191 UR - http://nbn-resolving.de/urn/resolver.pl?urn:nbn:de:bvb:573-30926 SN - 978-989-758-573-9 SN - 2184-495X SP - 360 EP - 367 PB - SciTePress CY - Setúbal ER -
