Prisma Daps meets these goals
Prisma Daps: Functions that contribute to the SDGs
Energy efficiency
| The increasingly energy-efficient Prisma Daps contributes to target 7.3, where the aim is to increase energy efficiency by 2030. |  |
|---|---|
| According to target 9.4, all infrastructure should be upgraded for increased sustainability. Increasing the energy efficiency for units in the traffic environment is one way to contribute to this goal. |  |
| As the units become more energy-efficient, cities require fewer resources, which contributes to target 11.6 on reducing the environmental impact of cities. |  |
| Target 12.2 on sustainable management and usage of natural resources: Now, fewer resources than ever are needed to operate a Prisma Daps, which contributes to this goal. |  |
| Around 40% of Sweden’s electricity production came from fossil sources in 2021, according to SCB (Statistics Sweden). One way to reduce the need for fossil-fuel-generated electricity is to reduce the energy consumption of the units we use. More energy-efficient Prisma Daps units contribute to target 13: Climate action. |  |
Confirmation sound, locating sound and ambient noise control
| The aim of sub target 3.6 is reducing the number of deaths and injuries in traffic. The locating sound helps everyone in crossing the road safely, but is a particular help for people with visual impairments. |  |
|---|---|
| In sub target 9.1, the focus is set on creating an inclusive infrastructure. The Prisma Daps’ locating and confirmation sounds ensure that the pedestrian signal meets the needs of multiple groups. | |
| With Prisma Daps confirmation- and locating sounds, more people are taken in account. The functions reduce inequality in traffic environments, which is a contribution to target 10. |  |
| Sub target 11.B includes implementing strategies for inclusion. To this goal, Prisma Daps can contribute with inclusive features such as locating and confirmation sounds. | |
Light ring and confirmation light
| The light ring increases the visibility of the crossing, but is particularly helpful for people with hearing impairments or for cyclists who arrive at high speeds. With its help, accidents can be prevented in line with target 3.6 on reducing injuries and deaths in traffic. | |
|---|---|
| The light ring and confirmation light both contribute to a more inclusive infrastructure in line with sub target 9.1, as these features facilitate traffic environments for people with hearing impairments. | |
| The light functions contribute to sub target 10.2 about inclusion, as they simplify everyday life for people with hearing impairments. | |
| According to target 11.B, strategies for inclusion should be implemented. Pedestrian crossings along with traffic light signals are common in our society. To this sub target, we therefore find that we can contribute with the light ring and light confirmation. | |
Relief symbols and tactile directional arrows
| Since directional arrows and relief symbols help people with visual impairments in getting a sense of how the crossing is built, accidents can be prevented, contributing to goal 3.6 of reducing the number of injuries and deaths in traffic. | |
|---|---|
| The relief symbols and directional arrows ensure an inclusive traffic environment, which contributes to goal 9.1 regarding sustainable, resilient, and inclusive infrastructure. | |
| The symbols help you move safely in traffic environments even if you have a visual impairment. This reduces the inequality and contributes to sub target 10.2 on social inclusion, as urban environments often form the center of social life. | |
| Sustainable cities and communities should include everyone. To sub goal 11.B on implementing strategies for inclusion, we find that we can contribute with relief symbols/directional arrows. | |
Vibrator and RFID tag
| With an RFID tag or a vibrator with push function, people who need extended green time can be offered that solution. This contributes to sub target 3.6, aspiring to reduce the number of deaths and injuries in traffic. | |
|---|---|
| Sub goal 9.1 is about building inclusive infrastructures. Therefore, Prisma Daps with a vibrator and/or RFID tag can contribute. With the help of these functions, more people can feel safe in urban environments. | |
| These functions contribute to sub target 10 about reduced inequality, by helping groups that are vulnerable in traffic environments thanks to longer green time, for example. | |
| According to sub-goal 11. B, strategies for inclusion should be implemented. Pedestrian crossing signals are common in our cities and should therefore work inclusive. From that perspective, Prisma Daps’ vibrator and RFID tags are two excellent features that can contribute. | |
3. Good health and well-being
3.6. Reduce the number of injuries and deaths in traffic
Prisma Daps contributes to sub-target 3.6 of reducing the number of injuries and deaths in traffic.
 |
Confirmation sound and locating sound Confirmation sound: Confirms that the notification has been received. Locating sound: Helps you find the pedestrian crossing and “listen your way across the road”. As the ticking pulse increases, the traffic light turns green. Both are an important help for people with disabilities – but also for daydreamers.Ambient noise control The noise control adjusts the volume of the tick-tick-tick depending on the ambient noise level. To ensure that Prisma Daps does not disturb anyone, but always can be heard. |
|---|---|
 |
Confirmation light and light ring Increases the visibility – especially important for someone who cannot hear, or for cyclists moving at high speeds. |
 |
Relief symbols A three-dimensional map of the different parts of the pedestrian crossing that can be interpreted by touch, similar to braille.Tactile direction arrows A three-dimensional arrow – single or double – that indicates the direction in which the pedestrian crossing should be crossed. |
 |
Vibrator Feel with your hand which phase the pedestrian crossing is in. Fast vibration: Green light. Can be combined with several functions, such as extended green time, louder sound, or voice messages. |
 |
RFID tag Communicates through NFC. Provides the possibilities: extended green time, higher sound, or voice messages. The functions provide school classes or disabled individuals with a better chance of crossing safely. |
