Instrumented Traffic Cones for 5G/6G Networking
An instrumented traffic cone provides visual demarcation of a passageway for vehicles or pedestrians, as well as a boundary around a facility such as a secure facility. Each instrumented traffic cone may be equipped with a sensor and a wireless communicator. The sensor may be a camera, an infrared detector, a lidar or radar or sonar or other sensor type. The wireless communicator may be configured for 5G or 6G communication, and may enable each instrumented traffic cone to report its measurement data to peers or to a supervisor, and to receive instructions from the supervisor or other instrumented traffic cones. The instrumented traffic cones may employ an AI-developed algorithm to form a self-organized network and to assign responsibilities among the instrumented traffic cones. By providing both visual guidance and sensor data by wireless communication, the instrumented traffic cones may enable improved control of many critical applications.
