AI transport software technology company Flow Labs has launched a new AI-powered signal optimisation platform, Optimus LT.
Based on Flow Labs’ Optimus technology, the company says Optimus LT is a lighter, streamlined version providing corridor signal timing recommendations for agencies and engineering firms with limited budgets and limited access to high end data.
The company explains that, because many agencies and city public works departments across the country lack access to Automated Traffic Signal Performance Measures data, connectivity, and field study resources, making it extremely difficult to address signal timing issues and congestion, but that Optimus LT utilises high-penetration probe data to deliver comprehensive signal insights at a low cost.
Flow Labs says it accomplishes this by partnering with OEMs, GPS manufacturers, data aggregators and insurance companies to capture real-time information directly from vehicles, achieving an unprecedented CV penetration rate of up to 43% of all vehicles in the US — significantly higher than the industry standard of 3-10%.
“For the first time, agencies with limited budgets and infrastructure can solve traffic congestion nightmares without breaking the bank,” said Jatish Patel, CEO of Flow Labs. “At Flow Labs, we recognise the traffic management landscape is changing at unprecedented speed, and we’re committed to offering AI solutions to ensure no agency gets left behind.”
