Abstract
Examples include a system for controlling traffic signalling devices at an intersection, including a first radar sensor that detects road users in a first detection region on a first traffic route, outputting first radar sensor data indicating first sensor detected positions and a first sensor detected radial velocities, and a second radar sensor that detects road users in a second detection region on a second traffic route, outputting second sensor data indicating second sensor detected positions and a second sensor detected velocities. The first radar sensor and second radar sensor are at different locations, or different orientations, or both, and configured such that the first and second detection region have an overlap. An electronic data processing device combines the first radar sensor data and second radar sensor data into combination signals, and controls the traffic signalling devices based at least partially on the combination signals.
