Driverless vehicles are supposed to lower the risk of being on the roads. But, a truly smart highway system requires technology with special sensors built into roads and algorithms that paint a picture of how traffic moves.

On this edition of UWM Today, meet two members of the UW-Milwaukee College of Engineering who are on a mission to outsmart traffic. Joining us in the studio is Xiao Qin and Troy Liu, both associate professors of civil and environmental engineering.

Tom Luljak hosted UWM Today on WUWM for more than two decades and is the inaugural host of Curious Campus.
