SAFESPOT - Co-operative Systems for Road Safety “Smart Vehicles on Smart Roads”

Objectives

The key aspect of the project is to expand the time horizon for acquiring safety relevant information for driving, as well as to improve the precision, the reliability and the quality of driver information, and to introduce new information sources. Its key objectives are:

• to improve the range, quality and reliability of the safety-related information available to "intelligent vehicles" by providing "extended co-operative awareness" through the real time reconstruction of the driving context and environment;
• to support drivers preventively to the proper manoeuvres in the different contexts;
• to optimise the intervention of vehicle controls with respect to critical situations;
• to manage existing incidents to minimise further negative safety impact;
• to open the development of new safety applications based on the cooperative approach;
• to increase safety for all road users
