Abstract: A computerized hub connects companies seeking marketing services and marketing companies that provide marketing services. The systems and methods first provide hub-based tools to allow the company to develop a high-level marketing plan in accordance with the company's type of business, industry, geographic location, and marketing budget. Tool are also provided to facilitate budgeting, selecting, planning, launching, and reporting. In embodiments, the hub will have APIs to allow customers to provide a link to the customer's scheduling and accounting software to help develop the marketing plan and to monitor the effectiveness of the plan. The hub provides also provides interfaces for receiving performance data from marketing companies so their services may be offered to marketing service purchasers. Once a marketing company is selected, it is provided with additional interfaces which specify the campaigns and tasks for which the marketing company is responsible to implement.

Abstract: A traffic preemption system comprising a vehicle preemption unit configured to mount to a vehicle and transmit a signal comprising one or more identifying pulses, a detection unit configured to, receive the signal transmitted by the vehicle preemption unit, identify a characteristic of the vehicle preemption unit using the one or more identifying pulses, and calculate a timing delay based on the identified characteristic of the vehicle preemption unit, and an intersection preemption unit configured to receive the timing delay from the detection unit and change a traffic light in response to the timing delay.

Abstract: A traffic preemption system comprising an intersection control module, an intersection preemption unit comprising a signal detector configured to receive a signal transmitted by a vehicle preemption unit mounted to a vehicle and a remotely located electronic device comprising a controller configured to detect a variation in voltage. The system further comprises a cable coupling the intersection controller, the intersection preemption unit, and the remotely located electronic device, the cable comprising a power wire configured to carry a modulated voltage level and share power among the intersection preemption unit and the remotely located electronic device, a ground wire, and a communications wire configured to transmit a communications signal between the intersection preemption unit and the intersection controller.

Abstract: A wireless head for a traffic preemption system. Implementations may include one or more optical receivers adapted to identify an optical signal transmitted by an optical transmitter included in a vehicle preemption unit mounted to a vehicle and one or more head radio transceivers adapted to identify a radio signal transmitted by a vehicle radio transceiver included in the vehicle preemption unit. A head radio frequency (RF) modem may also be included adapted to transmit one or more radio signals to an intersection RF modem. The head may be mounted to a traffic support fixture. The one or more optical receivers, one or more head radio transceivers, and the head RF modem may all be operably coupled together within the wireless head. The intersection preemption unit may be adapted to change a traffic light in favor of the vehicle to which the vehicle preemption unit is mounted.

Abstract: A traffic preemption system and related methods. Implementations may include a vehicle preemption unit mounted to a vehicle including an optical transmitter adapted to identify to an intersection preemption unit coupled with an intersection system controller the presence of the vehicle. The vehicle preemption unit may include a vehicle radio transceiver and the optical transmitter and the vehicle radio transceiver may be coupled with a vehicle controller. The intersection preemption unit may include an optical receiver and an intersection radio transceiver. The optical receiver and the intersection radio transceiver may each be coupled with an intersection controller. The intersection preemption unit may be adapted to change a traffic light in favor of the vehicle to which the vehicle preemption unit is mounted in response to an optical signal, a radio signal, or a combination of optical and radio signals from the vehicle preemption unit.
