I'm a huge fan of the news, especially KPTV and Fox12. I even have apps on my phone just to check periodically if the news has changed. Today on KPTV the app was talking about a new technology that would improve road safety no matter the weather condition. A company called Vaisala has created a mobile sensor technology that would gather information on the pavement, air temperatures, road conditions, and friction levels. Then the information that the sensors would obtain would be sent to the Department of Transportation and road maintenance crews to help determine a course of action if it was needed.
This new technology is supposed to be able to help agencies save money and be more efficient. I'm excited to see what else this technology is capable of and if it really does help as much as it sounds.
