Audi’s Travolution is a traffic light detection system which was just approved. The system establishes a connection with the traffic light. As the car approaches an intersection with the red light on, the system will receive a signal from the red light as to when the next green light is coming up. Then the car can let its driver know what speed he should have while driving through the intersection without braking and accelerating again.
Such a system, if it’s working correctly will improve your gas mileage and help you reduce emissions. A5 and A6 Avant models will be equipped with the Travolution. But in order to work, stop signs will have to be upgraded. A module which capable of communicating with the car should be installed on all stop signs.
But as always, should you have this technology available, make sure you don’t rely only on it when speeding through an intersection!
