Active Optical Cables — leveraging their inherent advantages ofhigh bandwidth, long distance, interference immunity, and integrated packaging — are becoming an indispensable "visual nerve" and "safety backbone" for intelligent transportation infrastructure. Optical fiber is resistant to EMI, vibration, moisture, and temperature, making it resilient in harsh environments. Optical fiber offers enhanced security as they. Intelligent Transportation Systems are rapidly evolving from "perception-capable" to "autonomous decision-making. " With massive deployments of intersection cameras, radars, traffic signal controllers, variable message signs, and the millisecond-level latency demands of Vehicle-to-Everything. Abstract—Distributed optical fiber sensing (DOFS), along with its capabilities of long-range coverage, multi-parameter monitoring, and completely passive detection, emerges as one of the most promising non-destructive detection techniques for structural health monitoring (SHM) and operational. Distributed Acoustic Sensing converts a standard single mode telecoms fibre optic cable into an array of distributed sensors to deliver spatially and temporally rich traffic management information. In simple terms, ITS uses fiber networks, roadside communication systems, and smart devices to connect traffic. OPTRAL is pleased to announce its participation in the project, "SCORPUS – KSSP: Development of intelligent mobility services to support autonomous and semi-autonomous driving"; which will be carried out by a Spanish-Korean consortium. It is an honor for OPTRAL to be part of this project, which is.
