Abstract

A system for transferring information upon detection of wrong-way driving of a motor vehicle includes a transmitting device and a receiving device. The transmitting device encompasses a light source that is embodied to emit a light-coded signal, as well as a recognition unit that is embodied to detect wrong-way driving of a motor vehicle. The transmitting device is configured to emit the light-coded signal by way of the light source as soon as the recognition unit detects wrong-way driving of a motor vehicle, the light-coded signal containing an information item regarding wrong-way driving of the motor vehicle. The receiving device is configured to execute a row-by-row and/or column-by-column image scan, and to receive and evaluate a light-coded signal completely within one image.
