News18: AI, not traffic police, will run the signals

News18 Local on how three Bhopal founders set out to put AI in charge of traffic signals.

News18 article headline: AI, not traffic police, will control traffic

News18 Local profiled Krypton AI in August 2023, describing how Arpit Shrivastava, with Abhay Athya and Bhumika Wallabhadas, founded the company to monitor and run traffic signals with AI.

The idea, Arpit told the paper, started while he was preparing for college exams and kept losing time at signals that ignored the traffic in front of them. It led to a simple question: why should a signal hold a road on red when the road it is serving is empty?

The story also covered our vehicle monitoring at Bhopal’s airport, where the system raises an alert when a vehicle stays inside the premises longer than allowed.
