1   Definition

The digital representation of the traffic signalisations used for an environment represented as Scene Descriptors.

2   Functional Requirements

Traffic Signal Descriptors include:

  1. Position and Orientation of the traffic signals in the environment:
    • Traffic Policeman
    • Road signs (lanes, turn right/left on the road, one way, stop signs, words on the road).
    • Traffic signs – vertical signalisation (signs above the road, signs on objects, poles with signs).
    • Traffic lights
    • Walkways
    • Traffic sound (siren, whistle, horn).
  2. Semantics of the traffic signals.

The Objects contained in Traffic Signal Descriptors have Qualifier specifying their nature and may have Annotations.
