- Flow Labs has introduced Optimus Gen2, AI-driven software for traffic signal optimisation aimed at reducing traditional retiming durations from months to minutes.
- The software is underpinned by Prometheus, an AI engine that utilises transformer architecture to model signal performance using real-world data to understand intersections, corridors, and driver behaviour.
- Optimus Gen2 changes the dynamics of signal retiming by addressing the backlog and lowering costs, with claims to optimise signals with network-wide efficiency rapidly.
- The platform offers capabilities for timing, coordination, and safety optimisation, allowing engineers to define operational objectives and implement real-time data-driven plans.
- The software includes automated traffic modelling that accelerates and reduces the cost of previous manual processes, and is integrated into the Flow Platform.
- Optimus Gen2 is already deployed with agencies, state transportation departments, municipalities, and engineering consultancies in the U.S. and Canada, delivering analytics through connected vehicle data.
