Description
The project aims to promote knowledge exchange on human-automation research, to develop a joint position of what are the main human factors challenges and barriers to adoption of different Automation use-cases, as well to define a collaborative research roadmap, that includes the most important applied research questions and a plan to address them, in a time where ''Connected, Cooperative and Automated Vehicles'' (CCAVs) are expected to deeply transform our mobility landscape with foreseeable benefits in terms of safety, traffic efficiency and urban space occupation. Beyond the technological
Summary of the results
The initiative aimed to promote knowledge exchange, dissemination and future cooperation between the two institutions in the field of Human Factors applied to Connected, Cooperative and Automated Vehicles (CCAV). During one and a half years the two partners 1) held two knowledge exchange workshops and a third one devoted to strategic alignment, 2) organized an online seminar on the subject of CCAVs that joined international experts on the topic and 3) have jointly published and presented a paper in the Transportation Research Arena 2022 that took place in November 2022, in Lisbon.
The initiative contributed to strengthen the institutional relations between CCG and IFE. Also, through its dissemination activities, it promoted a reflection on important challenges pertaining the relation between humans and vehicular automation, reaching out to broader research, industry, and regulatory communities, as well as the general public.
