NoTraffic wants to change a century-old technology: traffic lights. Its system uses AI and cloud-connected radar to improve the flow of cars, buses, bikers, and pedestrians at urban intersections. Already operating in Arizona and California, NoTraffic raised $17.5 million last July to help it expand into Europe and Asia. Its tech can cut wait times in half, trim carbon emissions, and reduce the number of cars running red lights. Another goal? “Letting people spend a few more minutes every day with their loved ones … or get home in a safer way,” says co-founder and CEO Tal Kreisler.
