IntroductionCycling is important in Dutch modality. It also is healthy and a sustainable way of transportation.
But at a traffic light controlled intersection the bike often is of secondary importance.
Main titleContent
IntroductionWaiting for a red light is something you want to avoid. Cyclists often ignore red lights with a chance of accidents to happen.
We thought of a way to avoid the waiting and ensure green light for the cyclist.

Evergreen on Bike, a green wave, created by your smartphone
Concept Evergreen (on bike):
We already made it for the car: ODYSA (in car)
(i.e. in Eindhoven and Amsterdam)
Now we also can provide cyclists with an individual speed advice to ensure green light

How does it work? (1)1. GPS on smartphone determines position. 2. App sends a message to controller
