Traffic Technology Services (TTS) and 139 TransCore have taken a step closer in bringing traffic signal information into the vehicle.

TransCore will integrate its TransSuite advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) software into TTS’ Personal Signal Assistant to help motorists minimise the time spent at red lights. TransSuite’s ATMS map interface provides real-time traffic data, which is used by TTS to predict signal switch times. This data is then applied by OEMs and others to synchronise access through traffic signals.

TTS showcased the Personal Signal Assistant product, supporting Audi’s traffic light online information service, at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show and is now deploying the service nationwide in select metro areas, often overlapping with agencies utilising the TransSuite solution.
