SANTA ANA, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/search?q=%24ITI&src=ctag” target=”_blank”gt;$ITIlt;/agt; lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/InternetofThings?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#InternetofThingslt;/agt;–Iteris,
Inc
. (NASDAQ: ITI), the global leader in applied informatics for
transportation and agriculture, today announced a strategic partnership
with Cisco that will promote Cisco’s Connected Roadway solution through
several initiatives between the two companies.


Iteris and Cisco have deployed an edge-processing internet-of-things
(IoT) solution with the City of Las Vegas that will combine data feeds
from the Iteris Vantage Next video detection platform with the Cisco
Kinetic software solution to analyze multimodal data from vehicles,
bicycles and pedestrians for a number of high-value use cases to improve
traffic flow and reduce congestion.

Pedestrian safety and connected vehicle applications in particular will
be highlighted throughout the collaborative program, which will include
a demonstration at the Smart Cities Innovation Accelerator during this
week’s The Innovator’s Forum in Las Vegas.

“Las Vegas is renowned for its heavy pedestrian traffic, so we are
constantly working to deploy innovative, multimodal technologies to
better manage the flow of vehicles and people,” said Michael Sherwood,
director of information technologies at the City of Las Vegas. “Iteris’
integration with Cisco’s Connected Roadway solution will produce
insights that highlight the advantages video detection and advanced
networking can have on a city’s transportation system.”

“We are excited to showcase how seamlessly Iteris’ advanced video
detection integrates with Cisco’s industry-leading networking
capabilities to ultimately enhance safety and mobility across the
nation’s transportation networks,” said Todd Kreter, senior vice
president and general manager, Roadway Sensors at Iteris. “Iteris has
been a key proponent of connected vehicle integration for many years,
and this partnership with Cisco is further testament to our dedication
to advancing multimodal safety technology throughout our business.”

Additionally, through a broader partnership agreement, Iteris and Cisco
will address smart city initiatives through joint sales and co-marketing
activities to key accounts across the United States. This will include
highlighting the integration of Cisco communication systems into current
and future projects, ensuring its mutual customers have the most secure
and reliable communication infrastructure for their end-to-end
transportation systems. In addition, by integrating Cisco hardware and
software at the edge, the Iteris intersection-as-a-service™
offering will be able to support advanced capabilities for edge
processing, as well as larger data sets and connected vehicles
applications.

Future integration of Iteris video and radar detection sensors with the
Cisco Kinetic platform will be showcased at intelligent transportation
systems conferences throughout the year, including the upcoming ITS
America Annual Meeting in Washington, DC, from June 4-7, 2019.
