    1. Connected Vehicles In A Connected World A Perspective from PATH & VITAL Ching-Yao Chan California PATH, UC Berkeley 2nd International Summit, CVTA September 29, 2010

    2. Well Connected Vehicles We are looking for a few good “traits”, for well connected vehicles. Stay informed and keep others informed Be a good listener, besides being a good speaker Have a good translator, if you do not speak local languages Straight to the point when talking Open minded Attentive, sensitive and considerate

    3. Questions and Challenges Do we really want it? It seems people like to be connected. Will it work? Contents are equally important as “devices” in system developments. Will it sustain? I don’t think it is a farce. Things are cyclical, but the world is cyclical anyway. Can we keep up? Technologies are running too fast for the society as a whole, but we catch up eventually. Are we sure it is a good thing? I think it is, but we will know in time.

    4. California PATH Program California PATH (Partners for Advanced Transit and Highways) was established in 1986. It is administered by the Institute of Transportation Studies (ITS), University of California, Berkeley, in collaboration with and with support from Caltrans. PATH is a multi-disciplinary program that has been a pioneer in ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems), with a focus on applied research of cooperative systems. Complete information can be found at www.path.berkely.edu

    5. A Long History of Cooperative Systems Research at PATH V2V 4-car platoon (1994) 8-car NAHSC platoon (1997) Automated merge (2000) 2-truck platoon and 3-bus platoon (2003) Cooperative Collision Warning (GM, 2003-4) Cooperative ACC (2004 – 2010) 3-truck platoon (2010) Networked Traveler hazard alerts (2010) CAMP V2V interoperability testing (2010)

    6. Infrastructure Cooperation, too Infrastructure to Vehicle (I2V) Roadway-powered electric vehicles (1981 - ) Magnetic guidance for automatic steering since 1987 – cars, buses, trucks, snowplows Intersection Decision Support (2001 +), including SPaT broadcasts by WiFi, DSRC Pedestrian detection and warning (2004) VII California testbed (DSRC, 2005 +) and CICAS-V RSEs Variable speed limit advisories (2009 +) Vehicle to Infrastructure (V2I) Transit signal priority (2001 + ) Traffic data probes (2006 +) and probe fusion Advanced traffic signal control using probes (2010)

    7. Automated Platoon Longitudinal Control and Merging

    8. Enabling Technology for Vehicle Platoon

    9. Cooperative Collision Warning (CCW, GM) Evaluated wireless communication-based collision warnings on 5 cars for GM (2004) Wireless updates broadcast every 50 ms using Proxim 2.4 GHz 802.11b radios Foundation for GM demonstration at 2005 ITS World Congress, San Francisco

    10. Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control (CACC, Nissan) CACC extends from Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with the addition of V-V communication (DSRC) Potential increase in roadway efficiency without compromising safety Pilot Evaluation of driver experience Two Nissan Infinity FX-45 ACC time gaps of 1.1 to 2.2 seconds CACC time gaps of 0.6 to 1.1 seconds 5.9 GHz DSRC, Denso WRM, 10 Hz Communication

    11. SafeTrip-21: The Connected Traveler

    12. Vision The World is already Connected! Safety and Mobility Information HERE and NOW by leveraging the rise of the MOBILE INTERNET

    14. Networked Traveler Slow Traffic “Soft-Safety” Alerts

    15. Networked Traveler – PATH2Go http://www.networkedtraveler.org/

    16. “Cooperative Systems” & IntelliDrive Work at PATH US DOT-led efforts in VII-based intersection safety (Intersection Decision Support, Cooperative Intersection Collision Avoidance System) State of California (Caltrans-led) research and deployment efforts for a VII testbed, VII California. The national VII Proof of Concept work in communication testing “urban canyon” “hilly terrain”. IntelliDrive exploration of alternative communication means and devices for improving safety and mode choice US DOT- and Caltrans-sponsored SafeTrip-21 Networked Traveler research.

    17. “Cooperative Systems” & IntelliDrive Work at PATH FHWA Exploratory Advanced Research project Selected VII Applications for Mobility Advanced Traffic Signal Control Algorithms IntelliDrive State Pooled Fund effort Investigating the Potential Benefits of Broadcasted Signal Phase and Timing (SPAT) Data under IntelliDrive CAMP (Collision Avoidance Metrics Partnership) V2V Over-the-Air Interoperability

    18. Test Track and Laboratory Facility

    19. VII California Testbed Vehicles: About a dozen The Infrastructure: 40 RSE Planned 12 Installed Not maintained now The Potential: ADT 400,000 vehicles: US-101: 215,000 SR-82 (El Camino Real): 50,000 I-280: 135,000

    20. Integrated Test Track Richmond Field Station, UC Berkeley

    21. Assets: Vehicles and Support

    22. Robert E. Parsons Traffic & Transit Laboratory (PT2L) A joint effort by Caltrans and California PATH since 2005 Dedicated to Robert E. Parsons, founding director of California PATH who devoted his career in innovating transportation systems in the United States

    23. ‘Real Time’ Cooperative Testbed 11 km arterial: El Camino Real (SR-82) 35 signalized intersections from Ray/Rosedale at Burlingame, CA to 42nd Ave. at San Mateo, CA 29 southbound and 28 northbound 390/391 bus stops Total 15 transit buses instrumented with cell-phone boxes Plus 68 other potential intersections

    24. VITAL Vehicle Infrastructure Technology Affiliates Laboratory

    25. Vehicle-Infrastructure Technology Affiliates Laboratory (VITAL) What is VITAL? A consortium to enable affiliates to find a common research agenda A program focused on emerging and exciting transportation concepts based on “connectivity” technologies VITAL is… Built upon the foundation of applied research heritage at PATH Nearly 25 years Over 1000 research projects A collaboration eco-system supported by a network of researchers and scholars associated with PATH

    26. Recent Events Inaugural Launch of VITAL Ceremonial Announcement in conjunction with IEEE VTC Spring Conference in Taipei, Taiwan Signing of MOU with Taiwan Telematics Industrial Alliance (TTIA) Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) became a founding member ITRI/Visteon/PATH Team was selected to participate in the CAMP V2V Over-the-Air Interoperability Project

    27. Join us in riding the tidal wave of “connectivity”. Connect with us. A sincere invitation by VITAL
