A vehicle collects data of a plurality of to-be-detected barrier gate crossbars around the vehicle by using a sensor mounted on the vehicle, and transmits the data of the plurality of to-be-detected barrier gate crossbars to a processor; the processor determines data of a target barrier gate crossbar from the data of the plurality of to-be-detected barrier gate crossbars based on a pose of the target barrier gate crossbar, where the target barrier gate crossbar is a barrier gate crossbar of a lane on which the vehicle is located; and the processor determines a status of the target barrier gate crossbar based on the data of the target barrier gate crossbar, and controls, based on the status of the target barrier gate crossbar, the autonomous driving vehicle to pass through the target barrier gate crossbar.

The present invention relates to a boom gate including a boom gate body having a first end mounted to a pivot mechanism and a second end and a controlled failure region, wherein the boom gate body comprises at least one hollow tube being substantially comprised of carbon fibre or a derivative thereof, and the controlled failure region enables the boom gate to undergo controlled failure upon receiving a high-speed impact.

Examples described herein provide a computer-implemented method for thermal lockout for a motor of a gate crossing mechanism. The method includes monitoring a motor current across a sense resistor of the motor. The method further includes determining a present thermal capacity unit (TCU) at a time interval based on the motor current across the sense resistor. The method further includes determining whether the motor is at a thermal limit by comparing the present TCU to an expected TCU. The method further includes responsive to determining that the motor is at the thermal limit, causing initiating a hard fault.

Apparatus and methods for assembling, installing, and operating a manually operated gate (e.g., a safety gate). The manually operated safety gate can include a gate frame and a spring assembly. The gate frame can include a proximal upright member, a distal upright member, an upper arm, and a lower arm. The proximal upright member can be anchored to a stationary surface. The upper arm and lower arm can be pivotably coupled to the proximal upright member and distal upright member to form a parallelogram. The manually operated gate can be configured to pivot between self-close position and a closed position at a constant angular velocity. A kit can contain the required structural components and instructions and can be used to assemble the manually operated gate assembly.

A school bus stop sign assembly for enhancing safety of children entering and exiting a school bus includes a hinging unit that is coupled to an outer wall of a school bus. The hinging unit is actuated into a deployed position and a stored position. A member is coupled to the hinging unit and the member extends outwardly from the school bus when the hinging unit is actuated into the deployed position. Thus, the member extends across a roadway on which the school bus is driving to inhibit a vehicle from passing the school bus thereby enhancing safety for children entering or exiting the school bus. A pair of video cameras is each coupled to the member to capture imagery of the environment around the member.
