We have a lot of traffic light controlled crossings in Japan that are just for a crosswalk, while the smaller intersecting road is stop-sign controlled for cars. Only the crosswalk is controlled by a signal that stops traffic on the larger road - only when pressed. There are many of these.

- crosswalks for traffic signal controlled intersections where the light is _only_ sensor triggered - magnet loop in the road and a push-button for pedestrians. there are very few of these. a little sign says “push button” - and if you don’t press it, you will wait until a car comes.

both of these are “on demand” to me . 

this is beyond normal signal controlled crosswalks in the middle of larger roads (like in front of a hospital, etc),
