Smart Transportation
1) Connected VehiclesTalk to other vehicles & infrastructure (V2X)
2) Autonomous VehiclesRobotic control (partial to full)
Key Benefits: Connected Vehicles
Improved Efficiency / Reduced CostsIncreased road capacity, reduced congestion/traffic, lower
operation costs, improved fuel economy
Improved SafetyCommunications and sensors to reduce accidents – saving lives and money
Industry: Autonomous Vehicles
Long Term: Societal Impact, Ideally V2X (IoT) but not required
Key Benefits: Autonomous Vehicles
•Improved Efficiency / Reduced CostsIncreased road capacity, significantly reduced congestion/traffic, lower
operation costs, improved fuel economy
•Improved SafetyCommunications and sensors to reduce or eliminate accidents – saving lives and money
•Increased AccessibilityImproved convenience and flexibility - millenniums, aging population, disabled users, anyone
