Carlos has 6 years of professional experience in research and engineering projects in the United States and Mexico. Since he joined the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) in 2017, he has performed intelligent transportation systems (ITS) technology development and implementation activities along the US-Mexico Border. Mr. Silva is currently leading several projects analyzing improvements to the radio frequency identification (RFID)-based and Bluetooth/Wi-Fi-based border crossing and wait time systems. Analyses include using emerging technologies to improve accuracy and disaggregation of crossing and wait times. Carlos has performed maintenance and operation activities at multiple border crossing measurement systems, working at TTI’s laboratories and in the field, interacting with stakeholders in Mexico and the U.S. Mr. Silva has developed specifications and equipment implementation plans for RFID and Bluetooth-based border crossing and wait times measurement systems throughout the southern border. He has also been involved in the development of an information system to disseminate border crossing information.
