Abstract (en)
The present disclosure relates to a system for detecting movement of a pedestrian or cyclist comprising: a bendable plate for arranging on a pavement; two pressure sensors for detecting bending of the bendable plate under pedestrian or cyclist weight, each said sensor being placed under a distinct region of the bendable plate; a control unit comprising an electronic data processor configured to detect a pedestrian or cyclist approaching a crosswalk by: receiving pressure signals from said sensors; identifying the direction of the movement of the pedestrian or cyclist by determining which sensor detects bending first. The disclosure also relates to a method for operating a system for detecting movement of a pedestrian or cyclist.
