Virtual Wall - Road Safety
26th May' 2009Here’s an innovative road safety idea, the Virtual Wall conceived by Hanyoung Lee is designed to heighten driver and pedestrian awareness and to encourage both to follow crosswalk rules. Virtual Wall concept is that plasma laser beams would assist pedestrians while they cross from one side to another, so they don’t have to worry about being run over and certainly will be much more noticeable than the traffic light.
Although the lasers aren’t harmful to the car, but the effect is strong to aware drivers. Instead of showing a red light when it’s time for pedestrians to cross the street, a curtain-like, two-dimensional image of giant people crossing the street is projected. The real pedestrians walk behind their virtual counterparts.
