The Difference Between Pelican Crossing and Puffin Crossing

LanguageEnglish
Pelican Crossings

Pelican Crossings(Previously named Pedestrian Light Controlled Crossing) means that the flow of traffic is controlled by traffic lights. which is different from zebra crossings. At the pelican crossings, The traffic Signal will be changed after a timed delay by pressing pedestrian button. In general, it appears in a straight line or straggered road. If the pelican crossing goes straight across the road then you would treat it as one crossing even if it has a central refuge. If the crossing is straggered and not in line then the crossings are treated as seperate.

Puffin Crossings

Puffin Crossings(Pedestrian User-Friendly Intelligent Crossings) look very similar to pelican crossings. But no sensors are on top of the traffic lights. These sensors detect if pedestrian are crossing slowly and can hold the red traffic light longer if needed.

These do not a flashing amber light as part of it's sequence and phase like normal traffic lights.

Pedestrian can also run across the road from an angle and not start at the crossing.

The Difference Between Pelican Crossing and Puffin Crossing

Toucan Crossings

It is type of crossing that also allows bicycles to be ridden across. Unlike the pelican crossing, before the lights for vehicles go back to green, a steady red and amber are displayed instead of a flashing amber. The pedestrian/cyclist signal lights may be on the near side of the crossing (like a puffin crossing), or on the opposite side of the road (like a pelican crossing).

Pegasus Crossings

It is a type of signalised pedestrian crossing with special consideration for horse riders. These crossings has raised push buttons so the horse rider does not need to dismount in order to cross the road.

  The integration of the pedestrian as a priority in the pedestrian traffic light system  has allowed the development of a dedicated optic for the crosswalk with customizable designs for each city, from the classic static man through the walking man and the corridor, to matrixes of led with hourglass transitions.   Featured traffic light with zebra crossing High Flux Pedestrian Traffic Light Clear Lens Pedestrian Traffic Light Pedestrian Traffic Light Modules   Pedestrian Traffic Light FAQS QWhat kind of led brand? For 5mm DIP we use EPISTAR; for High flux SMD we will use NICHIA   QWhat is the IP grade? QThe pedestrian light need software to programming? QDo you have different shape? QThe housing color are optional ?   As one of a top led lights manufacturers in China , we have various types of led flashing light   for sale, any need, please contact us.

New Development – 200mm High-flux LED Traffic Signal

Image
  We are glad to announce we have developed new version of our high-power LED light modules. This traffic signal – 200mm sized – is being applied commonly at junctions and provides traffic signaling. As you can see from the table below we replaced 6 LEDs with 3 high-flux surface mount type LEDs which are supplied by Nichia, Japan. They deliver higher light intensity while keeping low wattage. This type of LEDs will provide higher intensity and thus better performance at traffic lighting applications. Furthermore, it is energy efficient traffic light as the light modules consume no more 9W for green, and 7W for yellow and red.   Old version 200mm Color Amount Intensity Power Wavelength Red 6 LEDs 250cd 7w 622 ~ 628 Yellow 6 LEDs 410cd 7w 585 ~ 590 Green 6 LEDs 300cd 9w 500 ~ 506 New version 200mm Color Amount Intensity Power Wavelength Red 3 LEDs 400cd 7w 620 ~ 630 Yellow 3 LEDs 600cd 7w 590 ~ 594 Green 3 LEDs 600cd 9w 503 ~ 508   Sinowatcher Technology Co., Ltd is a profe...

The Working Principle of the Traffic Light Control System

Image
  As is known to all, the traffic light is an important guarantee for maintaining traffic order and ensuring the traffic is safe and unimpeded. In our daily life, when we pass an intersection or a T-shaped intersection, we may find that the time setting of the traffic lights on the main road and the secondary road will be different. In fact, the time setting of the traffic light on the road is mainly set by the control system. So how dose the traffic light control system work?   The working principle of the traffic light control system:   In the traffic light control system, the main controller, control circuit, counter, timer, decoder, clock signal generator, decoder drive circuit and digital display decoder drive circuit are needed to complete the whole process of controlling the traffic light.   The second pulse generator is the standard clock signal source of timer and controller in the system. The decoder outputs the control signals of two sets of traffic lights...
