// One detected traffic light message defines a single 'bulb' and not a box of
// several bulbs, e.g. red, yellow, green are three separate detected traffic
// lights.
//
// The parent frame of a detected traffic light is the virtual sensor coordinate
// system.
//
// /note The virtual sensor coordinate system is relative to the vehicle coordinate
// system which has its origin in the center of the rear axle of the ego
// vehicle. This means if virtual sensor mounting position and orientation are
// set to (0,0,0) the virtual sensor coordinate system coincides with the
// vehicle coordinate system.
