Steve Surhigh, vice president and general manager of Cloud Services for Harman International, said: “Adding TrafficLand roadway video to our Aha Radio TrafficLand is one of the best vehicle to infrastructure demonstrations we have seen. Real-time, updating roadway video is very visual and easy to understand, which makes it very informative and useful for our end users.”
