I-DREAMS is a project funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme which aims to set up a framework for the definition, development, testing and validation of a context-aware ‘safety tolerance zone’ for on-road driving, within a smart Driver and Road Environment Assessment and Monitoring System. The i-DREAMS consortium consists of 13 [...]
AutoMate’s objective is to develop, evaluate and demonstrate the “TeamMate Car” concept: driver and automation are seen as members of one team and they share the driving task – perception, decision-making, and vehicle control. Through the achievement of this main objective, AutoMate is expected to positively impact several aspects: Improve road safety, by reducing both human errors [...]
PROSPECT (Proactive Safety for Pedestrians and Cyclists) aims at developing a new generation of proactive safety systems to protect Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs), with an emphasis on pedestrians and cyclists. PROSPECT's starting point is a better understanding of relevant VRU accident scenarios (combining multiple European accident studies with urban naturalistic observations). Improved VRU sensing [...]
Managing Automated Vehicles Enhances Network (MAVEN) project is exploring the paradigm of a hierarchical self-organizing system: multi-level, top-down guidance of self-organizing dynamic platoons of cooperative automated vehicles. To this end the project is developing a generic multi-level system for the guidance of highly automated vehicles, applied to dynamic platoons at signalized intersections and signalized [...]
TrustVehicle aims at advancing technical solutions for automated driving to better assess critical situations in mixed traffic scenarios and even under harsh environmental conditions, hence increasing safety far beyond the current levels. The project follows a user-centric approach and will provide solutions which significantly increase reliability and trustworthiness of automated vehicles and contribute to [...]
VI-DAS is positioned to address the goals of improved road safety by development and deployment of ADAS and navigation aids in societally acceptable and personalised manner, based on a reliable combination of the overall traffic scene understanding and essential consideration of the driver’s physical, mental, demographic and behavioural state. The objectives are listed below: [...]
TransAID develops and demonstrates traffic management procedures and protocols to enable smooth coexistence of automated, connected, and conventional vehicles, especially at Transition Areas. A hierarchical approach is followed where control actions are implemented at different layers including centralised traffic management, infrastructure, and vehicles. First, simulations are performed to find optimal infrastructure-assisted management solutions to control [...]
BRAVE’s approach assumes that the launch of automated vehicles on public roads will only be successful if a user centric approach is used where the technical aspects go hand in hand in compliance with societal values, user acceptance, behavioural intentions, road safety, social, economic, legal and ethical considerations. This approach must be understood as [...]
