Ouster, Inc. announced that its turnkey traffic management solution, Ouster BlueCity, will be deployed at more than 30 intersections across the greater Atlanta area. This initiative is a collaborative effort with the Georgia Department of Transportation and Ouster BlueCity distributor, Southern Lighting & Traffic Systems, to modernize the region?s traffic infrastructure. The expansion follows the deployment of Ouster BlueCity at an initial 6 intersections in downtown Atlanta on a high-traffic and pedestrian corridor near the Georgia World Congress Center.
By integrating Ouster BlueCity, which combines Ouster?s 3D digital lidar sensors with proprietary AI perception software, GDOT aims to: Optimize traffic flow: Improve real-time traffic signal actuation to reduce congestion and idle times. Improve safety: Detect, classify, and track different types of vehicles, pedestrians and cyclists for advanced safety features even in diverse environmental and lighting conditions. Provide real-time alerts: Deploy proactive, real-time vehicle-to-everything (V2X) safety alerts for connected vehicles via on-boarding units.
The deployment illustrates the continued and accelerating adoption of Ouster BlueCity by agencies and municipalities that include large-scale deployments of 100 plus intersections each in Utah, and Chattanooga and Nashville in Tennessee. The Atlanta expansion reinforces Ouster BlueCity's position as a leading solution for transportation departments seeking to transition from legacy inductive loops and 2D sensors to a single, integrated, 3D lidar-powered traffic management solution for actuation, analytics, and alerts.
