RSM Background • Simon - computational intelligence
platform based on fuzzy logic
• Designed to manage urban traffic intersections in real-time, live data gathered at the intersection
• Hardware and data agnostic – leverage many sensors (radar, infrared, etc) and data sources
• Live, comprehensive simulations of intersection environments and transportation zones
• Demonstration projects with public sector – provide open access to data and analytics
• Key Uses: o Evaluate intersection efficiency –
wasted green signals, etc. o Transportation planning o Vision Zero – safer environments for
pedestrians o Data and analytics for
connected/autonomous vehicles (C/AVs)
o Route planning and wayfinding o Smart logistics o Public transit prioritization o Determining signal system
performance o Platform for intelligent cities

Current AV Landscape • Automotive industry in transition • Extensive investment in auto tech –
traditional OEMs and startups
• Assumption these vehicles will not rely on infrastructure long-term, negotiate priority on their own
• What happens now? • Integrate with existing traffic
environments before C/AV technologies are ubiquitous
• Safe, efficient deployment – not “one company, one technology” solution
• Pathways for collaboration – • Comprehensive solutions from
multiple private sector partners • Public/private partnerships – new
avenues for engagement

Importance of Intelligent Infrastructure • Addresses the gap – now to critical
mass of AV’s • Generate efficiencies and higher
levels of safety for all roadway users – add value for everyone
• Negotiate priority for vehicles regardless of connectivity
• Include cities in this transition – very smart vehicles, outdated infrastructure
• Reduce congestion, pollution, address systemic traffic and transportation issues

Role of Cities, Agencies, Legislature • Ensure that C/AV deployment
increases public benefit – proactive stance
• Injection of core values – DOT Smart City Challenge example
• Increasing equity & connectivity, reducing pollution, enhancing quality of life for all residents
• Policy developers, technology influencers
• Identify how technology can help meet public sector mandates
• Living labs – test zones in existing road networks

Policy Thoughts • Focus on the important issues – safety • Broad policy objectives – cannot address all issues now, smart
phone analogy • Pave the way for demonstration – product iteration occurs in a
live environment, cities and agencies have a seat at the table • Re-thinking PPP’s – how can private sector assist with Cap Ex? • Procurement – new policies to encourage owner/operators to
experiment with technology, address risk • California leadership – stance to encourage innovation
• Guiding legislation for AV pilots • Encouraging individual cities and municipalities – providing policy
guidance, avoiding policy ‘patchworks’
