A traffic monitoring application using Bluetooth sensors is designed to track and analyze vehicle movement in urban areas. These systems utilize Bluetooth-enabled devices installed at strategic points, such as intersections or highways. Here's how it typically works.

Bluetooth sensors detect signals emitted by devices like smartphones, car infotainment systems, or Bluetooth-enabled devices in vehicles. Each detected device has a unique identifier (MAC address, anonymized for privacy).

​​ By detecting when and where these signals appear, the system determines travel times, speeds, and movement patterns between different points in the city.

​​ The information can be used to adjust traffic signals dynamically, suggest alternative routes to drivers, and inform urban planners for long-term infrastructure improvements.

The data collected by the sensors can be elaborated and sent to the server in order to be viewed as reports through tables and charts.​ ​ These reports allow to have a complete overview of the traffic in terms of volume, type and flow of traffic. This information can be used to manage traffic in real time and to improve infrastructure, reduce emissions, and ensure a positive driving experience.

Comark developed a bluetooth and WIFI detection system (phones or data transmission systems inside traveling vehicles) called BT100, which is non-intrusive and privacy friendly.

Since Bluetooth data includes unique device identifiers, systems often implement data anonymization and encryption to ensure compliance with privacy regulations.
