WaySync-M, which is the short for WaySync-Mobile, is a mobile tool for real-time diagnosis and performance evaluation of traffic signal timing plans. It enables users to develop virtual signal controllers on their mobile devices, which run the same timing plans as that running in the field. Together with its advanced features of geo-referencing and dynamic time-space diagram, it allows users to easily diagnose common issues with actuated coordinated signals, such as phase early return, transition, clock drifting, and erroneous offset inputs. It can be used as a supplemental tool for better timing coordinated traffic signals. Dynamic time-space diagram with Integrated vehicular trajectory for best diagnosis and performance evaluation of coordinated traffic signals. Key features: + Display real-time Time-Space Diagram (TSD) of the traffic signals + Display real-time traffic signal timing on Map + Check bandwidth and attainability when edit timing in TSD + Record GPS tracks and videos which can help engineers to improve traffic performance + Support optimization for non-common cycles * Wifi-only iPad cannot record GPS tracks without external GPS device.

About

Daily Pulse

Features
Read full description

Daily Pulse shows what conditions are like in the places you move through, based on simple, real-time signals from people nearby. The app focuses on everyday infrastructure signals such as traffic flow, internet quality, and electricity availability. Instead of long reports or social posts, Daily Pulse uses quick signal inputs to build a clear, aggregated picture of how an area feels at any given moment. Reports are fast and lightweight. You open the app, select a signal, and indicate whether the situation is good, okay, or bad. Each signal can be shared a limited number of times per day to keep the data meaningful and reduce noise. There are no feeds to scroll, no comments to read, and no profiles to manage. Location is detected automatically and used only to associate reports with nearby areas. Reports are aggregated and displayed as trends for cities and regions, not as individual submissions. Exact locations are not shown publicly, and reports are not tied to personal identities. Daily Pulse is designed to stay calm and unobtrusive. It does not push users to check in on a schedule or encourage constant interaction. You use it when something changes around you, and it stays quiet when nothing does. The goal of Daily Pulse is to provide a shared, real-time sense of local conditions without turning them into opinions or conversations. It is a practical tool for understanding what is happening where you are, right now.
