Co-operative ITS Systems for Enhanced Electric Vehicle Mobility (Mobility2.0)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,

Mobility2.0 will develop and test an in-vehicle commuting assistant for FEV mobility, resulting in more reliable and energy-efficient electro-mobility. In order to achieve a maximum impact, Mobility2.0 takes an integrated approach of addressing the main bottlenecks of urban FEV mobility: 'range anxiety' related to the limited FEV range, scarcity of parking spaces with public recharging spots, and ...

The innovative use of virtual and mixed reality to increase human comfort by changing the perception of self and space (VR-HYPERSPACE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

"VR-HYPERSPACE addresses the concerns expressed in ACARE’s Vision 2020 publication of changing demographics and increased urbanization resulting in society in 2050 and beyond needing more long-range transport for business and social-related mobility. What is required is a radical approach to conventional thinking with regards to the internal and external dimensions of the cabin, and revolutionary ...

euroFOT (European Field Operational Test on Active Safety Functions in vehicles) (euroFOT)

Start date: May 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

The Intelligent Car Initiative has identified road safety, energy efficiency, and traffic congestion as the main challenges currently being faced by European transportation. Despite their severity, these issues may be improved with the use of new in-vehicle technologies currently not available in the market. However, implementing new technologies implies a risk to manufacturers. Factors such as di ...

Manual Work Support Throughout System Lifecycle by Exploiting Virtual and Augmented Reality (ManuVAR)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

Manual work is a crucial and expensive component of manufacturing. Globalization causes companies to reduce manual work costs by offshoring and global outsourcing. This poses problems such as increased lead times, lower quality products and services, and weaker management. Because of the pressure of globalization and the decline of the working age population in Europe, the situation will get worse ...

Radio Frequency Identification Tags Linked to on Board Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems in a Wireless, Remote and Intelligent Monitoring and Assessment System for Maintenance of CONstructed Facilities (MEMSCON)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2012,

Advances in Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology, in Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS), in lower-power wireless networking and in computation give hopes for a new generation of tiny, cheap, networked sensors that can be ‘sprayed’ on buildings to provide quantitative information on the structure’s physical state while in service. This can be used to assess the structural condition ...

2-WHEELER BEHAVIOUR AND SAFETY (2-BE-SAFE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"Powered Two Wheeler (PTW) users are greatly over-involved in serious and fatal crashes. They have between 5 and 25 times the risk of having a fatal crash compared to car drivers, depending on the country. The number of PTWs on European roads has more than doubled over the last two decades. The recent MAIDS (Motorcycle Accident In-Depth Study) study of PTW crashes in Europe found that behavioural ...

Highly Automated Vehicles for Intelligent Transport (HAVE-it)

Start date: Feb 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2011,

Description The groundbreaking HAVEit proposal aims at the long-term vision of highly automated driving. Within this proposal important intermediate steps will be developed, validated and demonstrated. These intermediate results on the one hand offer high potential for exploitation within 3-5 years after HAVEit and on the other hand form the ...

Fibre Optics-Based Intelligent MONItoring and Assessment System for Proactive Maintenance and Seismic Disaster Prevention in Reinforced COncrete Tunnel Linings (MONICO)

Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2011,

"Manny planned tunnels are in countries of high seismicity with several Km under densely populated areas requiring high safety standards. Structural sensing with remotely interrogated fibre optic deformation sensors has a large potential usage on extended structures such as tunnels where it can be the basis for condition assessment. For this, algorithms for structural health assessment of tunnels ...
