  3. Presentation Title: “An Infrastructure Based Approach Toward Connected Automated Vehicle-Highway System”
  4. Abstract:

Internet companies and auto makers have been focusing on developing a vehicle-centric platform for connected vehicle and autonomous driving. This presentation presents an alternative approach, which is infrastructure based and could be more cost-effective and reliable. This presentation will discuss various definitions of Connected and Automated Vehicle-Highway System. In developing these systems in the next few decades, the active roles of transportation planning, design and management agencies and organizations will be presented. In addition, this presentation will discuss about the system architecture, major technologies, and the roadmap to achieve the four levels of automation and connectivity defined by the US DOT in 2015.  The system designs, R&D efforts, challenges, and international collaboration will be discussed as well.
