So-called "UFO-like traffic lights", introduced in 1979-80 to quite a few places in Miyagi, Gunma and Aichi Prefectures. They were optimised for small crossings where there was no room for ordinary signals.
Only three sets of them remain active today, all of which are in Sendai. They are due to be replaced with new ones within a week or so.
