    Subcommittee Hearing Focuses On Fostering Transportation ‘Innovations’

    Subcommittee Hearing Focuses On Fostering Transportation ‘Innovations’

    The House of Representatives’ Transportation & Infrastructure Subcommittee on Highways and Transit elicited insight concerning a wide array of emerging technologies during a Sept. 5 hearing that “have the potential to improve the safety and productivity” of the U.S. surface transportation system, according to Rep. Sam Graves, R-Mo., the subcommittee’s chairman (seen above). “The population and amount of freight moving through our nation are projected to increase significantl

    Transportation And Technology – So Interlinked It’s Almost Impossible To Plan For Tomorrow

    As local government leaders finalize fiscal year budgets, many are even more focused on long-range transportation planning. That’s because transportation planning is much harder than planning next year’s budget. How do government officials plan for transportation costs considering the fact that the technology that will be required in three, five or ten years is still being developed? It is a critically important task because there is no doubt that technology will define the f

    Rolling robots, in test mode in Arlington, could be coming to Dallas sidewalks

    A rolling robot may be coming to a Dallas sidewalk near you. Dallas officials are considering whether to green-light a pilot of autonomous delivery devices. The robots, which are powered by an electric battery, could deliver groceries, takeout, medicine or other items to customers' doorsteps. If it gets the City Council's blessing at a meeting later this month, the rolling robots could be deployed as early as November. Delivery robots have become an appealing alternative for

    High-speed rail in America: Tracks to the future

    Karen Philbrick, Executive Director of the Mineta Transportation Institute at San José State University, explores the benefits that high-speed rail will bring to America and how it will play a vital role in future mobility, especially as the country’s population continues to grow. “We must find ways to move more people, to move these people faster, and to move them with greater comfort and with more safety,” were the words spoken by President Lyndon B. Johnson when he signed
    How Much Power Does It Take To Fly In A Real-Life Jet Suit?

    How Much Power Does It Take To Fly In A Real-Life Jet Suit?

    This isn't actually a real Iron Man suit. But it does fly. It's a flying suit made by Gravity Industries, a young British startup that builds what they call 'jet suits.' The system uses six kerosene-powered jet thrusters to let a human fly around. Honestly, it just looks cool. This tweet states that it takes 1,000 horsepower to fly—how about an estimation to check this number? The Physics of Flight Let's start off with some fundamental physics. How does this jet suit fly? I'm

    Airport labs: a testing ground for new innovation

    More and more airports around the world are pushing the boundaries of innovation by setting up incubator labs on their premises, creating a collaborative meeting point for start-ups, developers and tech experts. All around the world, airports are keen to compete by placing themselves at the forefront of innovation. Many cutting-edge inventions often find some of their first applications in the constrained airport environment; from artificial intelligence, virtual reality, dri

    A replacement for traffic lights gets its first test

    In-car signals based on vehicle-to-vehicle communication could reduce commuting time by 20 percent, say researchers. The world’s first traffic light system began operating near the Houses of Parliament in London in 1868. It consisted of a set of gas lights operated by a policeman and designed to control the flow of horse-drawn traffic across the Thames. The trial was a success, at least as far as traffic control was concerned. But the experiment was short-lived. A few months

    Auto cyber security is the need of the hour in the times of autonomous vehicles

    The rise of autonomous and smart connected vehicles on our highways has put a spotlight on the instances of auto cybercrime, and the relevance of suitable regulations in the industry. FreightWaves recently discussed the impact of these regulations on civil liability in detail, and as a continuation to that segment, spoke with David Barzilai, the Executive Chairman of Karamba Security, an Israeli company that focuses on securing automotive controllers from hackers via its soft

    Study Puts Virgin’s Hyperloop One Plan Ahead of Regional Competition

    The feasibility and environmental study for the high-speed route from Columbus, Ohio, to Chicago is another step toward making the interstate route a reality. (TNS) — Feasibility and environmental impact studies will be done on Virgin Hyperloop One's proposed route connecting Columbus, Chicago and Pittsburgh. The federally required environmental impact study is to be finished by July 2019. Engineering firm WSP USA will collect data while reviewing existing conditions along th
