The customized COPS@rail system uses a one-stage alert method, the alert is activated when the traffic participant approaches a level crossing regardless of the presence of a train, warning the participant to proceed with caution when approaching a dangerous traffic section. The program algorithm of the COPS@rail system determines whether the participant is adjusting speed while approaching the level crossing. If a decrease is speed is not ascertained then the flashing frequency is increased, which adds emphasis to the warning about the approach to a dangerous site.
The system can be attached to an existing pole, which means lower investment costs.
