Deliberative Self-Organizing Traffic Lights with Elementary Cellular Automata

Figure 5

The computer-sensor shown in (a) is composed of a computer and a sensor which could be a simple camera. The example illustrates possible implementation of the sensor. However, the sensor may be an inductive loop, radar, or infrared sensor. In (b), the image obtained by computer-sensor is shown, in which only a car is recognized in the sensing area.
