So I've had this on my mind for awhile and thought it could be a cool idea in the future. If it holds and practical applications is yet to be determined. This idea is more orientated towards the law enforcement agencies and highway patrol more than anything. The idea being that when two or more vehicles are in close proximity to each other the light bars will sync wirelessly to a pattern ideal for that particular agency. For instant say CHP is in full code3 mode, light bars to the rear are doing the center out red/blue alternating with amber. The light bars would sync, the first cars amber flashing with the second cars red/blue and alternating in that pattern synced together. I think this would be significantly easier for people to determine distance and the amount of emergency vehicles on scene. There's been times were I've seen several vehicles parked on the side of the road in code3 mode and the light bars patterns are so erratic its hard to tell how many vehicles there are if there moving and the distance. The idea that the patterns synced when there are more than one vehicle would be slower than the normal pattern giving people more time to judge the amount of vehicles and distance. The only agency i can think of that would keep the same pattern just synced between the vehicles would be CHP since there really the only one i can think of that uses a slow pattern. So its just and idea thought it would be cool and was curious what you guys think.
