Utah is setting a national precedent for the integration of Physical AI on public roadways. As a cornerstone of the Connecting the West Program, the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) is scaling lidar technology from a successful pilot to a statewide deployment across intersections.
Join ITS America for an in-depth webinar to explore the fundamentals of 3D lidar and gain practical insights into how this technology is seamlessly integrated into existing traffic signal systems. This webinar will take a deep dive into UDOT’s strategy for achieving statewide mobility and safety goals through lidar-powered multimodal actuation, real-time analytics, and vehicle to everything (V2X) alerts.
You will hear directly from the key project leaders behind this rollout. Expert panelists will share how they are leveraging AI-powered 3D perception to deliver real-time multimodal detection, fuel V2X communications, and identify safety incidents and traffic intelligence.
