Chattanooga is leading the country in adopting smart city technology to improve our roadways, and with it, the safety and quality of life of our citizens. Using American lidar and advanced perception software from Ouster, we are building the largest lidar-powered smart traffic network in the United States. This technology will enable optimized traffic signal management on roads and intersections to improve traffic flow and provide data we can use to improve pedestrian safety.
The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) Center for Urban Informatics and Progress (CUIP) has partnered with the city of Chattanooga and Ouster to implement a smart corridor to test and deploy solutions for road safety. The project includes the use of Ouster's BlueCity lidar sensors to collect data on traffic patterns and pedestrian movements. The data is being used to improve pedestrian safety and optimize traffic flow. The project is the largest deployment of lidar-based traffic detection in the US. Read the case study to learn more about how this project is helping to make Chattanooga's roads safer for all users.
