Lidar leader Aeye took home the award with its ultra-long range automated incident detection (AID) deployment with the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s cold-weather pavement testing facility. The solution is the first AID deployment of 800m—a major upgrade over the facility’s 300m solution—providing reliable lifesaving detection, even in harsh winter conditions.
An intersection safety project in Phoenix, a V2X data exchange platform programme in Florida, an autonomous shuttle pilot in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, and a traffic congestion study in Nashville were the other finalists.
ITS Georgia won the Best State Chapter Award —providing much needed momentum in advance of the 2025 ITS World Congress set to be hosted in Atlanta.
