The VIROS Project aims to design and develop an intelligent traffic controller unit with wireless communication capability. The intelligent traffic controller can gather and assess traffic conditions, undertake data-driven traffic control, and communicate these traffic conditions to road-users. For its pilot implementation, the application of the technology is intended to aid traffic management and improve overall road safety and driver decision making while traversing the roads.  
Using AI-based methods in computer vision, the intelligent traffic controller can analyze traffic statistics such as vehicle recognition and vehicle flow rate, assess traffic condition, and direct traffic. The traffic information are then communicated by these controllers wirelessly to vehicle drivers, pedestrians, and other road-users through Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X).   

DOST-ASTI and the University of the Philippines – Department of Computer Science (UP-DCS) as co-implementing agencies of the VIROS Project, signs a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA).
