The 28th ITS World Congress is taking place in Los Angeles, CA this week, on September 18-22. The congress brings together world leaders, practitioners, policy- makers, researchers and industry stakeholders to explore “Transformation by Transportation” in the field of Intelligent Transportation Systems. Our ISense Group team is excited to participate again in the congress and contribute to the conference’s programme and discussions.
In a Special Interest Session on ‘Extended and Defragmented Operational Design Domains for Higher Automation’, which took place yesterday and was organised by the EU-funded Hi-Drive project, Dr Angelos Amditis, the Research & Development Director at ICCS/NTUA and ERTICO’s Chairman moderated an engaging discussion that blended European, US and Asian perspectives when tackling major challenges for the broad deployment of Connected Automated Driving (CAD). Christina Anagnostopoulou, our team’s Technical Manager, also took part in the discussions, providing insight on the European developments towards the deployment of higher automation by delving into the operations foreseen in the Hi-Drive project. The session was a great opportunity to look into global challenges, needs and opportunities while moving towards a future of highly automated driving.
