SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 23, 2026--

Ouster, Inc. (Nasdaq: OUST) (“Ouster” or the “Company”), a leader in sensing and perception for Physical AI, today announced that its turnkey traffic management solution, Ouster BlueCity, will be deployed at more than 30 intersections across the greater Atlanta area. This initiative is a collaborative effort with the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) and Ouster BlueCity distributor, Southern Lighting & Traffic Systems, to modernize the region’s traffic infrastructure.

The expansion follows the deployment of Ouster BlueCity at an initial 6 intersections in downtown Atlanta on a high-traffic and pedestrian corridor near the Georgia World Congress Center. As one of the largest and fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the United States, Atlanta is prioritizing data-driven solutions to manage increasing traffic density and vulnerable road user safety. By integrating Ouster BlueCity, which combines Ouster’s 3D digital lidar sensors with proprietary AI perception software, GDOT aims to:

"Ouster’s continued expansion into the greater Atlanta area represents a significant milestone in our mission to scale AI-powered intelligent infrastructure," said Asad Lesani, VP of Smart Infrastructure Products at Ouster. “Ouster BlueCity is bringing Physical AI to smart cities around the world with over 700 contracted site deployments across intersections, mid-blocks and highways. We are excited to continue our partnership with GDOT to improve mobility and safety for all road users attending the FIFA World Cup and beyond.”

The deployment illustrates the continued and accelerating adoption of Ouster BlueCity by agencies and municipalities that include large-scale deployments of 100+ intersections each in Utah, and Chattanooga and Nashville in Tennessee. The Atlanta expansion reinforces Ouster BlueCity's position as a leading solution for transportation departments seeking to transition from legacy inductive loops and 2D sensors to a single, integrated, 3D lidar-powered traffic management solution for actuation, analytics, and alerts.

PYEONGTAEK, South Korea (AP) — Thousands of Samsung Electronics workers rallied Thursday at its computer chip complex in Pyeongtaek, South Korea, demanding higher bonuses and threatening to strike as booming demand for artificial intelligence drives up memory-chip profits.

Holding signs and waving banners, the workers gathered at a factory compound amid a heavy police presence, shouting “make compensation transparent and remove maximum limits on bonuses!” Union officials said about 40,000 members participated in the protest. Police did not immediately provide a crowd estimate.

The rally came hours after Samsung’s cross-town rival, SK Hynix, posted an all time high in quarterly revenue and operating profit for the January-March quarter, a jump it attributed to expanding global investments in data centers and other AI infrastructure that drove up the demands for its memory chips.

Samsung, which together with SK Hynix produces about two-thirds of global memory chips, forecast earlier this month that its first-quarter operating profit would reach a record 57.2 trillion won ($38.6 billion). That would be higher than the 37.6 trillion won ($25.4 billion) posted by SK Hynix on Thursday, although Samsung has a more diverse lineup of businesses, including smartphones and consumer electronics.

Samsung’s union, which represents about 74,000 workers, says the company has failed to offer adequate compensation despite its strong performance. It has rejected the management’s proposal for bonuses of restricted stock and calling for removing caps on bonuses.

The union has threatened to stage an 18-day walkout starting May 21 if negotiations with management fail and claims that such action would cost the company more than 1 trillion won ($676 million) a day.

“We won’t stop this fight until our fair demands are met,” Choi Seung-ho, a union leader, said through a loudspeaker from atop a crane-mounted structure.

While semiconductor makers have benefited from the AI boom, the war in the Middle East has clouded the future outlook, disrupting supplies of key materials such as helium that are crucial to chipmaking and pushing up energy costs.

In a conference call Thursday, Woo Hyun Kim, SK Hynix’s chief financial officer, said the company is closely monitoring the conflict but does not expect a meaningful impact on production, saying it has been diversifying its sourcing of helium and bromine beyond the Middle East and has sufficient inventory.
