CoMoSeF Final Event
2015-07-01
Co-operative traffic solutions, which are based on communications between vehicles (V2V) and between vehicles and infrastructure (V2I), allow drivers to be informed in time about dangerous situations and incidents. Co-operative mobility solutions are a step towards more automated transport.
CoMoSeF project has introduced co-operative mobility solutions that are cost-effective and can be deployed in all kinds of vehicles and traffic environments. CoMoSeF has developed and deployed intelligent transport solutions and services and created business models in different test sites in Finland, France, Luxembourg, Romania, Spain, Turkey and the Republic of Korea.
At the project’s Final Event the different test sites will present and demonstrate the innovative systems developed. These demonstrations cover the collection of data from vehicles, the detection of dangerous situations, the transmission of the information between vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure using different communication modes, the integration of different devices on-board the vehicle and representation of information and warnings to the driver.

19th International Forum on Advanced Microsystems for Automotive Applications
2015-07-06 - 2015-07-08
Kaiserin-Friedrich-House, Berlin (Germany)

The automobile of the future will have to respond to two major trends, the electrification of the drivetrain, and the automation of the transportation system. These trends will not only lead to a greener and safer driving but redefine the concept of the car completely, particularly if they interact with each other in a synergetic way as for autonomous parking and charging, self-driving shuttles or mobile robots.

Workshop on Anonymisation of personal FOT data, 01-02 September 2015 in Gothenburg
2015-09-01 12:00 - 2015-09-02 12:30 | SAFER- Vehicle and Traffic Safety Centre, Lindholmspiren 3, Gothenburg, Sweden
Personal data such as video and GPS is collected in many Field Operational Tests (FOT) and Naturalistic Driving Studies (NDS). This data contribute with essential information that e.g. enables an objective view on the driver´s behaviour during different driving scenarios and facilitate map-data enrichment to the collected naturalistic data. The personal data demands though a high level of data protection not to reveal the personal identity outside the group of researcher that has approved access to the data. If the data could be anonymised while still keeping the information that is essential to research, the access and the re-use of the valuable data would be greatly facilitated.
This workshop provides insights into the current state-of-the-art of anonymisation of FOT/NDS data and includes discussions regarding the trends and the possibilities in the future. Book the dates to be updated on FOT/NDS data anonymisation!

In context of the initiative of Germany, Austria and the Netherlands to deploy Cooperative ITS in the C-ITS Corridor Rotterdam – Frankfurt/Main – Vienna, GmbH is organising a workshop on the Road Works Warning Service in Germany. The main focus will be on harmonised Road Works Warning Services via TPEG and ETSI G5.
The purpose of this workshop series is to identify ways to ensure harmonised information flow in order to provide Roadworks Warnings to drivers both via ETSI G5 technology (as a first “day 1” service) and as Traffic Information (TPEG via Digital Broadcast/IP). We will discuss the best possible methods and test those within the next C-ITS Corridor testing phase in fall 2015.

3rd International Symposium on Future Active Safety Technology Towards zero traffic accidents
2015-09-08 22:00 - 2015-09-11 21:00
Location: Gothenburg, Sweden
The 3rd International Symposium on Future Active Safety Technology Towards zero traffic accidents will be held on September 9-11, 2015, in Gothenburg, Sweden. After two successful events in Japan, FAST-zero’11 in Tokyo, and FAST-zero’13 in Nagoya, the symposium will be held outside Japan for the first time. Sweden is a natural choice for a FAST-zero symposium since the Swedish parliament was the first to announce a Vision Zero policy. The main idea is simple: No loss of life in traffic is acceptable. But the approach is innovative; since humans make mistakes, instead of making the driver responsible, vehicles and traffic system solutions must be designed so that accidents are avoided. Focus is on active safety systems, driver characteristics and human factors, and autonomous and automatic driving vehicle. Hosts are SAFER and Chalmers University of Technology.
Call for abstract is open until February 1st, 2015.
