News from TRB's IDEA Programs – Summer/Fall 2013
The latest issue of Ignition, a periodic news magazine from TRB's Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis (IDEA) programs, examines how ghostly images can identify aggregates and improve quality control/quality assurance; a warning system to help improve transit track safety; improved crack filling and joint sealant in pavements; the path for more innovations; railroad safety; driver behavior improvement; and more.
Innovations Deserving Exploratory Analysis (IDEA) programs provide start-up funding for promising but unproven innovations in surface transportation systems. The programs’ goal is to foster ingenious solutions that are unlikely to be funded through traditional programs. Managed by the Transportation Research Board, IDEA programs are supported by the member state departments of transportation of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, the Federal Transit Administration, and the Federal Railroad Administration.
