Connected Automated Driving in Europe

🆕CORDIS has published an article on #SELFYproject results! The #SELFYproject has developed a toolbox of 21 innovative tools validated in 12 laboratory use cases to enhance security, resilience, and data protection in #CCAM environments. 🚗🛡 🗣 Víctor Jiménez, SELFY’s technical coordinator from Eurecat-Technology Centre, highlights in the article: “The cooperation and collaboration of all the tools provided an extra layer of security, privacy and resilience to the CCAM, acting as a technology enabler.” 🔗 Read the full article & discover more about the project: https://lnkd.in/dzqA3Hdi #Cybersecurity #EuropeanResearch #ConnectedCars #AutomatedMobility

🚀 AUGMENTED CCAM – Third Newsletter is out! 🚀 We’re excited to share the latest updates from the AUGMENTED CCAM project! Our third newsletter is now available, highlighting key insights from the first round of pilot tests conducted in France, Latvia, and Spain. From safer insertion maneuvers to VRU protection, emergency coordination, and urban logistics efficiency, these real-world evaluations confirm the crucial role of advanced infrastructure in enhancing Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM). Encouraged by these promising results, we are now preparing for the next phase—bringing in external users and moving closer to large-scale deployment across Europe! 📩 Read the full 3rd newsletter here: https://lnkd.in/eZB8QgU3 🔗 Stay tuned for the next updates! #AutomatedMobility #SmartInfrastructure #CCAM #AugmentedCCAM #Innovation #FutureOfMobility

🚨📣 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬: The CCAM Partnership and the CCAM Association invite you to participate in a Cooperation Working Arrangement aimed at integrating Connected, Cooperative, and Automated Mobility (CCAM) technologies and services into urban transport systems. This initiative has been set up to support you in testing and scaling urban CCAM pilots. By joining us, you will have the opportunity to integrate tailored CCAM services for your communities, leading to benefits such as increased safety, greater inclusivity, and reduced traffic congestion, among others.

Our project coordinator Maria Pia Fanti (Politecnico di Bari), recently discussed with #CORDIS the latest insights about our project and our mission to make transportation safer, more sustainable and inclusive. #IN2CCAM is advancing CCAM by designing and developing physical, digital and operational infrastructure. From smart traffic management and advances road sensors to automated shuttles and last-mile solutions, our work is being tested in real-world environments in Tampere, Trikala, Turin and Vigo, and also through simulations and emulations in Quadrilatero (Portugal), and Bari. Beyond technology, we're also working with regulators to streamline EU-wide testing frameworks—a crucial step toward widespread adoption of automated mobility solutions. “Because much of the infrastructure we are designing is safety-critical, the rules and regulations for validating it are very strict" 💡 Want to learn more?

🚀 Reflecting on the 3rd FAME Stakeholder Workshop! 🚀 Today, 70 participants gathered to discuss key challenges, lessons learned, and collaboration opportunities in the field of Physical and Digital Infrastructure (PDI) for CCAM. 💡 Main Takeaways: 🔹 The research phase proved particularly complex, requiring the consolidation and prioritization of all applicable PDI for CCAM while considering diverse vehicle requirements—an aspect often overlooked in past approaches. 🔹 The deployment of Traffic Management Optimization solutions (leveraging CAV data) presented significant challenges, particularly in defining a realistic and evidence-based validation approach. 🔹 The project contributed to addressing a key research gap by defining the requirements for digital twins and HD maps with the necessary level of detail for different applications. 🔹 Establishing a comprehensive impact assessment framework that covers safety, efficiency, and broader mobility implications remains an ongoing effort. 🔹 A crucial lesson learned is that end-user perspectives (e.g., road infrastructure operators) should be both the starting and ending point of any development. Without this, solutions risk misalignment with real-world needs. 🤝 Cross-learnings & Collaboration: A recurring theme across CCAM projects is the absence of an "established" truth. From initial expectations to technical specifications and validation methods, ambiguity remains a major challenge. This reinforces the need for strong collaboration across sectors and disciplines. 📌 Looking Ahead: 🔸 Extending project durations could allow for a broader validation spectrum and more robust findings. 🔸 Future CCAM projects should ensure a well-balanced and complementary consortium from the outset, covering all critical aspects internally rather than relying on external collaborations, which remain highly uncertain in this evolving domain. A big thank you to all participants for the engaging discussions and valuable insights! #FAME #CCAM #SmartMobility #Innovation #Collaboration 🚗💡🌍 CCAM Association Thierry Goger
