Abstract

Various examples are provided related to multi-purpose context-aware bumps (CABs) that can support dynamic adaptation of form factors and functionality. In one example, a CAB system can include sensors distributed in a traffic network and communicatively coupled to a remotely located computing environment; context-aware bumps (CABs) placed in the traffic network and communicatively coupled to the remotely located computing environment; and a CAB application configured to adjust a form factor of a CAB in response to information obtained from the sensors and/or CABs. In another example, a method can include receiving, by a remotely located computing environment, traffic information from sensors distributed in a traffic network or CABs placed in the traffic network; communicating, by the remotely located computing environment, a form factor control to a CAB in response to the traffic information; and adjusting a form factor of the CAB in response to the form factor control.
