Project description
Building smarter cars for safer roads
Road accidents kill more than 1 million people per year. New technologies, such as connected and autonomous vehicles, will help to improve human safety and reduce this number. Speeding up joint cross-disciplinary efforts is necessary to improve vehicular communication technology. The EU-funded COSAFE project will develop cooperative connected intelligent vehicles (CIV) based on vehicular communication technology. It will address road transport challenges with sharing of resources and technological cooperation enabling the development of an innovative CIV solution. Supported by different advanced research technologies, such as vehicle edge computing, vehicle communication, data fusion, advanced driving systems or cellular network resource management, it can tackle related encounters. New innovative applications will improve transportation efficiency, safety and European ICT competitiveness.
