How LiDAR Is Replacing Traffic Cameras at Smart Intersections Check out Micro Center as THE AI Destination: https://micro.center/2e788f Sign up for a FREE 128gig Flash Drive at Micro Center’s Austin Location: https://micro.center/114615 Visit Micro Center News: https://micro.center/507a9c You know that stretch where you cruise through every green light? That perfect timing might not be luck anymore. AI traffic lights now watch every car, bike, and pedestrian approaching the intersection in real time, lining up the signals so you sail right through. Commutes are running up to 25% faster. In a Tennessee city, smart intersections flagged so many near-crashes on one block that a single change cut them to zero. In Vancouver, Canada, bike lanes got 55% safer. The catch? For any of this to work, the city has to see you. Cameras, radar, the phone in your pocket, the car in your driveway. So is a faster, safer commute worth being watched? Or is the price of every green light a city that never stops tracking you?
