The pedestrian stripes are easy to remove and have average dimensions of 200 x 50 cm and use lightboxes of eight to ten centimeters deep, installed on the ground. There are two versions available, one for asphalt – with a steel frame and poured concrete under a luminous plate – and one for brick which is only a four centimeters plate without a frame. The modules use LED lighting that can be connected to streetlights and solar panels. They have been tested to hold about 2,500,000 cars.
