Abstract: An integrated system for traffic safety (1), particularly in low visibility conditions, for use on a site (2) of a road, railway, airport, harbor or the like, which comprises road markings and/or signs (3). The system (1) comprises at least one light-emitting device (4) for generating at least one light beam (5). One feature of the invention is that it comprises means (6) for controlling the light-emitting device (4) to generate the beam (5). The device has such a predetermined relative position with respect to said site (2) as to selectively interact with the road markings and/or signs (3) and to make the beam (5) only visible to the drivers that drive over the site (2) in a predetermined drive direction, and not to those who drive in the opposite direction.

Abstract: An optical signaling apparatus for use in highways or roadways (2), particularly in low visibility conditions, wherein a roadway (2) comprises at least one traffic bearing surface (S) with at least one edgeline (3). The apparatus comprises light-emitting means (4) for emitting at least one laser beam (5) and support means (6) designed to be arranged along the roadway (2) for supporting the light-emitting means (4). The apparatus also includes optical means (7) arranged along the roadway (2) for interacting with the beam (5) in such a manner as to selectively conform and project it either in a first direction (D1) which is incident on at least one edgeline (3) to interact therewith, or in a second direction (D2) substantially parallel to the traffic bearing surface (S) to define a substantially continuous optical path that can be viewed by the users, or even in both such directions (D1, D2).

Abstract: An interactive vehicle communication system, particularly for communication between motor vehicles, comprises a communication device (2) which may be placed on a stationary support (3) or a vehicle (4) traveling on a roadway and a receiver device (5), which may be placed on a stationary support (3) or a vehicle (4?) traveling on a roadway and interacts with said communication device (2). The communication device (2) comprises first means (6) for interfacing with external data detection and/or generation means, emitter means (9) for generating and emitting a visible light-emitting laser beam (8) with predetermined solid angle (a) and range, digitizing means (7) for digitizing said laser beam (8) and control means (10) for appropriately conforming and orienting said laser beam (8), to allow it to selectively interact with vehicle driving in a predetermined drive direction, excluding the other vehicles driving in the opposite drive direction.

Abstract: A multi-purpose visual signaling device, particularly for road emergency warning and in low visibility conditions, includes light-emitting means for generating a light beam and means for supplying power to the light-emitting means. The light-emitting means include at least one laser projector adapted to project images over a substantially flat surface for such images to be visible from a relatively long distance. The light-emitting means and the power supply means are mounted onto a stationary support structure, which may include a front warning triangle-defining portion. The laser projector comprises at least one laser diode and optical and/or electronic means for generating images in space or over a substantially flat surface. The optical and/or electronic means comprise a diffractive lens. Images include monochromatic, polychromatic and/or holographic images, possibly of variable configuration, and preferably form a triangular design.

Abstract: A high visibility emergency signaling device comprises a base (2) to be secured to an external support (3) raised above ground level, light-emitting means mounted thereto for generating at least one light beam (5) and power supply means (6) for such lightemitting means (4). Optical means (7) are further provided, operating on the at least one light beam (5) to model and orient it in such a manner as to illuminate a substantially circular area in space (A) and/or on the ground (A?).
