Traffic lights are visible in real time in Yandex applications
Traffic light signals in navigation applications are now visible in real time. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The local team of Yandex launched this pilot project in collaboration with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Now drivers can clearly see which color is lit at the intersection from their phone screen and can drive safely.

This is especially helpful during nighttime when visibility is limited or in rainy weather. In the near future, a countdown timer showing the remaining seconds until the traffic light turns red is planned to be added to the screen.

The timer allows the driver to plan their movements in advance and reduces unnecessary stress. Currently, the system is being tested at several major intersections in the capital's center, including the intersection of Amir Temur Avenue, Tiklanish, and Gulyor Streets.

Data from sensors is presented live in Yandex Maps and Navigator applications. If the experiment is successful, the system will be gradually implemented in other cities as well.

Live traffic light data serves to enhance road safety, reducing the likelihood of a driver delaying their stop or making a sharp turn without seeing the color. This helps decrease the number of road traffic accidents.

For new drivers, this system aids in better understanding urban conditions. If an inexperienced driver is unsure of what to do on the road, the color on the screen provides guidance.

The project also provides more accurate results in calculating the time to reach a destination. The applications now show more precise arrival times by taking into account actual stop durations rather than averages.

This is particularly important for taxi services, as it provides customers with real waiting times. Taxi fleets can better plan their movements based on this information.

The applications recommend optimal speeds to pass several intersections without stopping, taking into account the "green wave" of traffic lights. This reduces travel time and helps save fuel.

A consistent green wave smooths traffic flow and slows down the emergence of congestion. Data collected during the testing period allows for better coordination of traffic light cycles at control centers.

Data is also displayed on the car's main display via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, allowing the driver to monitor traffic light status without picking up their phone. Voice alerts inside the cabin help convey information without distracting attention from the road.

In the near future, this system may connect with Yandex Go services, ensuring even more accurate taxi call times. The system collects signal statuses from traffic light controllers on servers and transmits them to applications with minimal delay.

Encrypted channels are used for data security. Confidential information, such as personal or state numbers, does not pass through the stream.

Internet traffic is low, and battery consumption remains at a normal navigation level. It is recommended to hold the device close to the window for quality GPS reception.

Updates facilitate working with offline maps. Even if the map operates in offline mode, the traffic light color is obtained live via the internet.

Navigation applications support multiple languages, creating a convenient environment for various drivers. The interface allows for the selection of the local language, and the voice assistant enables remote control.

Multilingual support simplifies interregional travel. The application offers additional services, such as calling a taxi from a location.

The company uses rapid route recalculation algorithms to suggest directions when conditions change. If traffic light colors change, recommendations along the route are updated.
