City of Liverpool relies on thermal imaging to boost cycling
Innovative traffic signals at the junctions with Vauxhall Road and Pall Mall now help cyclists beat traffic. A signal displaying a green bike comes on before the full green for other traffic, allowing cyclists a five second head start on other vehicles. The signal expires when the full green light comes on. The signals are powered by FLIR ThermiCam sensors, which detect cyclists and distinguish them from other vehicles, meaning the advance lights are not used when there are no cyclists, avoiding delays to other road users.

Pedestrian and bicyclist detection with thermal imaging cameras
Thermal imaging cameras are becoming increasingly popular for roadside monitoring and highway surveillance systems. But the technology can also be used for traffic monitoring and dynamic control of traffic lights in cities and urban areas. By looking at heat signatures, thermal imaging cameras can make a reliable distinction between vehicles, pedestrians and bicyclists.
