Connected and Automated Driving
C-ITS / V2X / CCAM
Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) connect vehicles to other vehicles, roadside infrastructure, road users – such as pedestrians and cyclists – and cloud-based services. Integrating a variety of ITS sub-systems with Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAV) promises to significantly improve mobility, reduce congestion, and save lives by significantly reducing traffic incidents. The field of Cooperative, Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) is advancing quickly.
As a global leader in roadside infrastructure and traffic data, SWARCO is participating in groundbreaking CAV trials in Europe and the United States showcasing how the integration of real-time traffic signal timing is a critical part of countless connected applications.
To that end, SWARCO has partnered with auto manufacturers, leaders in DSRC and Cellular-V2X (C-V2X) communications, universities, and government agencies to showcase how C-ITS/V2X can optimize traffic flow, improve safety, and pave the path towards automated driving.
Within C-ITS, standards are introduced, which support Vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communication. These include communication technologies for Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and in future Vehicle-to-Pedestrian (V2P).
