Traffic lights are not only causing frustration to drivers, but they also increase pollution. Utilizing the enormous amount of traffic-related data gathered by Google Maps and the power of AI algorithms, the tech giant is hoping to cure both of those problems by efficiently regulating the existing infrastructure. The AI-based model takes into consideration the structure, trafficgreen patterns, and light scheduling of each intersection, using data from Google Maps.

Early numbers from Google's trials suggest there is a potential to reduce stops by 30%, cutting emissions in intersections by up to 10%.
