08:05 AM EDT, 09/04/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Quarterhill ( QTRHF ) on Wednesday said it has been awarded a contract to supply multiple AI Video Automatic Traffic Recorders (ATR) for Minnesota DOT (MnDOT).

Quarterhill's ( QTRHF ) iTHEIA unit "watches" over three lanes of traffic. It operates on a computing platform that does not require internet connectivity, but can be connected to a network for easy access to data if desired, the company said. It also eliminates the need for in-road sensors.

"MnDOT's order for multiple portable iTHEIA units represents a significant milestone for Quarterhill ( QTRHF )," said Chuck Myers, CEO of Quarterhill ( QTRHF ). "It not only reinforces our commitment to revolutionizing traffic data using AI but also marks an exciting step forward in our partnership with the state."
