Abstract:
The present disclosure provides an apparatus and system that may allow a user to facilitate the flow of traffic over contained environments or otherwise. This apparatus and system may improve management for the flow of traffic by providing a lower barrier for entry for municipalities and other entities to collaborate on traffic management. In some embodiments, those in control may create a tiered system for a series of lights within a connected block. In some implementations, those in control may create a tiered system over a larger grid system, such as an entire neighborhood, district, city, or state. In some aspects, the apparatus and system may allow those in control to set priorities for how to handle developing traffic conditions.

Claim (Index 14):
A synchronization device for managing a traffic light system comprising:\n a precision timing mechanism; a processor logically connectable to a system of traffic lights comprising a plurality of traffic lights, wherein the processor when connected to the system of traffic lights, is configured to:\n designate at least one master light from the plurality of traffic lights; \n designate at least one subordinate light from the plurality of traffic lights; \n impose settings priorities on the at least one master light and the at least one subordinate light; and \n synchronize the at least one master light and the at least one subordinate light, wherein synchronization is at least partially based on timing data received from the precision timing mechanism.
