On 22 September 2025, the CONNECT project marked its conclusion with its online final event, CONNECT Day. With more than 50 participants from research and industry, the consortium presented the Trust Assessment Framework and its application in CCAM scenarios, such as Intersection Movement Assist, Slow-Moving Traffic Detection, and Cooperative Adaptive Cruise Control. The event also included live demonstrations of the cryptographic mechanisms powering the framework.
The event was opened by the Chairman of the CCAM Partnership, Christian Merkt, who underlined the importance of trust and security in the future of CCAM, while also presenting the upcoming Horizon Europe calls for collaboration in the area.
During the event, ICCS colleagues Vangelis Kosmatos and Panagiotis Pantazopoulos presented the trusted task offloading pipeline developed in CONNECT. Using the project’s mechanisms, ICCS assessed the trustworthiness of the vehicle OBU software. As part of ICCS’s pipeline, the software transfers video analytics data (captured by the vehicle camera) to the edge infrastructure, where machine learning-based inference supports automotive decisions.
