The Universal Traffic Management System ( UTMS ) utilizing the infrared signal from the beacon is placed at the intersection .Actually it sends a signal to the computer in the vehicle . The computer will calculate the speed and direction of vehicles .
When the system is estimated that the car still had enough time to get through the intersection , the computer will display the vehicle speed must be taken in order to penetrate the green light .
However , if the system feels that motorists must stop , the computer will tell the driver to slow down the pace .
Motorists will also be told how long the red light will change .
Honda hopes that the system can reduce the acceleration and braking is not needed , so they can save fuel , improve traffic flow and reduce accidents .
This pioneering project will be implemented in Utsunomiya , Japan Tochigin prefecture , in cooperation with local police and UTMS Society in Japan .
One hundred and Honda vehicles will be equipped with this technology . As quoted by page Leftlanenews .
The automaker will oversee the efficiency of fuel use , CO2 emissions and accident patterns to determine if the effects of this system will dimassalkan or not . Tests carried out in April 2014 .
