Technology Development Towards Autonomous, Connected and Safe Mobility of People and Goods in Urban Environments
摘要
It is an essential requisite in order to achieve safe autonomous driving in urban environments, to address the mobility from a multidisciplinary approach. In this sense, technological development is crucial in both passenger and goods transport. Within Integra project, in which the work described here is framed, autonomous and connected driving is addressed from a dual perspective: urban environments and logistics environments. Thus, its activity is structured around the following lines of action: (1) improvement of perception technologies, (2) optimisation of communication technologies, (3) redesign of occupant damage mitigation technologies and (4) development of new delivery solutions. This paper summarizes the most critical aspects of each of these lines and the considerations to be taken into account to ensure the implementation of autonomous and connected driving in complex environments. In doing so, it takes into account the particular conditions of urban environments and their implication for the deployment of autonomous mobility.
