Beacon V16 and DGT 3.0: how they integrate with traffic panels
Road safety is evolving thanks to technology. One of the most significant changes in recent years is the implementation of the connected V16 beacon, especially its advanced version, such as the Hero Driver LED IoT . But did you know that these beacons also integrate with the DGT 3.0 system and road traffic displays? 🚧
This integration not only improves driver safety but also provides real-time information to all road users. Below, we explain how this smart connection works and why you should have a V16 beacon connected right now.
What is the DGT 3.0 platform?
DGT 3.0 is a digital platform developed by the General Directorate of Traffic that collects and distributes real-time information on road conditions. Its goal is to improve mobility, reduce accidents, and facilitate the response of emergency services.
The platform is powered by data from multiple sources, including navigation apps, traffic sensors, connected vehicles, and of course, connected V16 beacons like our Hero Driver.
What is a connected V16 beacon?
The V16 beacon is a luminous device that replaces emergency triangles. Its main function is to signal a breakdown or accident by placing the device on the vehicle's roof. But when we talk about a connected V16 beacon like the Hero Driver , we go much further:
- 💡 Emits an LED light visible at over 1 km.
- 📶 It integrates an IoT module that connects to the DGT 3.0 network.
- 📍 Automatically transmits the exact location of the stopped vehicle.
How does the V16 beacon integrate with traffic signs?
When you activate a connected V16 beacon like the Hero Driver, the device sends a notification to the DGT 3.0 platform within seconds with your exact location. This information is processed by the system and, if necessary, automatically displayed on variable message boards installed along roads. 🛣️
Thanks to this integration:
- ⚠️ Other drivers are warned of the danger in real time.
- 🕒 Reaction time to incidents is reduced.
- 🚨 Emergency services arrive faster.
It is a smart, fast and safe solution that saves lives.
