New type of night-light highway traffic sign research success [Full text]

According to news, a new type of road traffic sign that can absorb solar energy and emit light at night has been successfully researched.

According to briefings, at the moment, traffic and construction safety warnings at night around the world are relatively simple. The traffic signs on roads are basically made of light-emitting film and can be seen through the reflection of lights at night, for pedestrians and non-motor vehicles at night. Tips are not obvious, especially on suburban roads lacking lighting. Even for motor vehicles, although there are car lights, there are certain blind spots for passive reflective safety warning signs.

The new highway traffic control sign developed by the Beijing Road and Bridge Riverstone Conservation Center utilizes solar energy technology. The entire system consists of a luminous signboard, miniature indicator arrows, and strobe lights. The signboard absorbs solar energy and automatically emits light through the light sensor at night.
