The UTC-UX Fusion, a cutting-edge traffic signal control system that uses digital twin technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance traffic flow and lessen congestion around the city, was unveiled by Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).
The state-of-the-art system, which allows traffic lights to be dynamically controlled based on real-time data and predictive modeling, is a major step towards smarter, data-driven urban mobility.
The UTC-UX Fusion system is intended to improve operational efficiency, especially at crowded crossings and during peak hours, by modeling traffic scenarios prior to installation.
Key features are as follows:
- Real-time signal timing adjustments based on traffic pattern prediction
- Before activation, signal changes are simulated using digital twin models.
- incorporates upcoming sensor data for ongoing optimization
- permits traffic management based on priority to increase flow efficiency.
The observable advantages include a 20% reduction in travel times on major thoroughfares, better intersection performance, more seamless peak-hour traffic, and increased mobility across the city.
