Introducing “Smart Safe Intersections That Protect Vulnerable Road Users,” an exclusive white paper based on a two-year study conducted by Area X.O, an autonomous research and test facility in Ottawa, Canada, commissioned by Transport Canada. By reading this paper you’ll get a condensed overview of new research that examines the potential of integrating machine vision systems, V2I communications, and autonomous technology to enhance the safety of vulnerable road users at intersections. You’ll also gain valuable insights into the difference between private and public environments and how weather, time of day, and various obstacles can affect the ability of these technologies to work in unison. And finally, you’ll learn about the implications this research holds for the design of connected autonomous vehicles, regulatory frameworks, and the future of urban infrastructure. |
