Dr. Mina Sartipi, founding director of the Center for Urban Informatics and Progress (CUIP) at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. A national leader in smart city research, Dr. Sartipi shares how her team is using AI and real-time data to transform urban mobility and safety.
We explore Chattanooga’s groundbreaking Smart Corridor and the city's plan to scale lidar-enabled, AI-powered traffic systems to over 120 intersections, following a pilot that led to a 100% reduction in near-miss pedestrian incidents. Dr. Sartipi explains how small and mid-sized cities can now integrate smart tech into existing infrastructure to improve safety, efficiency, and public health.
From edge-deployed AI to connected vehicle systems, this conversation is a roadmap for cities navigating the future of urban mobility.
