Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022008731A1] A road anti-collision system (1) comprising at least: - a signal transceiver apparatus (10) installed at or close to a road intersection (100); - a signal transmitter apparatus (20) which is configured at least to transmit, to the signal transceiver apparatus (10), first signals (Si) indicative of the dynamical status of a first vehicle (101) approaching the road intersection (100) along a first direction (A) leading to the road intersection (100). The signal transceiver apparatus (10) is configured, based on the first signals (Si), to emit corresponding first light signals (LS1) carrying information indicative of the dynamical status of the first vehicle (101) at least towards a second vehicle (102) which is along a second direction (B) leading to the road intersection (100); - a signal receiving apparatus (30) which is installed on board of the second vehicle (102) and is configured at least first to detect and then to process the first light signals (LS1) for extracting the carried information indicative of the dynamical status of the first vehicle (101) approaching the road intersection (100) along the first direction (A). The invention encompasses also a method (200) for preventing road collisions at a road intersection (100).
