Nominate an intersection for a free congestion and safety makeover
Every community has at least one intersection where heavy traffic, cyclists, and pedestrians all meet in a space that traditional signal technology was never designed to handle. In 2023, 7,314 pedestrians were killed in traffic crashes. That number is up 78% since 2009. Three out of four of those fatalities happened after dark.
Ouster BlueCity is a single detection system that dynamically manages traffic lights while uncompromisingly prioritizing safety and privacy for pedestrians and cyclists.
With Ouster BlueCity:
- •Reduce inconvenient wait times
- •Detect every road user (bikes, cars, pedestrians), day or night
- •24/7, privacy-first crowd and traffic analytics

Why Nominate Your Intersection?
At Ouster, we believe these high-potential locations shouldn't be a source of frustration. They should be the gold standard for safety and mobility. That's why we're donating a complete Ouster BlueCity lidar system to one community in the US or Canada to turn their most challenging crossing into a model of modern innovation.
