Towards Buddha and ICP DAS present traffic control technology at APTA 2026

Towards Buddha Co., Ltd., a distributor of traffic management technology, partnered with ICP DAS at the APTA 2026 conference in Chicago to demonstrate the iTLC Intelligent Traffic Control System. The presentation highlighted hardware and software integrations designed to manage urban intersection flows.

The iTLC system utilizes data processing to adjust traffic signal timing based on real-time vehicle and pedestrian density. By implementing edge computing at the intersection level, the technology aims to reduce wait times and improve throughput in dense urban environments.

This demonstration at the American Public Transportation Association (APTA) meeting serves as part of a broader push by both firms to enter international infrastructure markets. The companies are positioning the platform as a modular alternative for municipalities looking to upgrade legacy traffic signal control infrastructure.
