Support action for Vehicle and Road Automation network (VRA)
Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
The improvement of sensors, power train control as well as communication, make possible the automation of vehicle driving. Vehicle prototypes are currently capable of driving automatically, in road and urban environment. The automation is provided by systems in the vehicle and/or deployed on the road infrastructure, so that the process is named Vehicle and Road Automation.Partial or full automatio ...

Cooperative Systems for Sustainable Mobility and Energy Efficiency (COSMO)
Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
Energy efficiency is strictly related to CO2 emissions and by its nature is a global issue.Traffic and transport have the potential of producing savings in energy consumptions that are potentially estimated in 26%. Looking at the traffic and transport system as a whole, energy is addressed in the traffic environment through different angles:\tVehicle fuel consumption: Savings can be achieved by a ...

"Safe Road Trains for the Environment; developing strategies and technologies to allow vehicle platoons to operate on normal public highways with significant environmental, safety and comfort benefits" (SARTRE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Oct 31, 2012,
"The project aims to encourage a step change in personal transport usage through the development of environmental road trains (platoons).Systems will be developed that will facilitate the safe adoption of road trains on un-modified public highways with full interaction with non-platoon vehicles. These systems will be developed as prototype systems.A scheme will be developed whereby a lead vehicle ...
