Talk to Traffic Signals Opens in Metro Atlanta
iATL Brings Together Auto, Technology and Communications Industries in One Laboratory

ATLANTA — For the first time, automakers, cellular network operators, traffic control device companies and semiconductor manufacturers have a single technology hub to advance the deployment of and showcase connected vehicle safety applications. The Infrastructure-Automotive Technology Laboratory (iATL) opened January 10 in Alpharetta, GA.

The iATL includes dozens of different types of electronic devices that control everything from traffic
signals to school zone safety beacons to electronic crosswalks. Automakers are able to develop
interactive safety apps that interact with the devices and cellular network operators will work out
communications including 5G.

Another unique feature of the iATL is that automakers can test safety applications in real-world
conditions in the streets of Alpharetta, which operates the first large-scale deployment of connected
vehicle infrastructure technology using all forms of communications simultaneously – 4G LTE,
Cellular Vehicle to Everything (C-V2X), Dedicated Short Range Radio (DSRC) and 900 MHz radio,
underwritten by the North Fulton Community Improvement District.
