CAV News Digest — September 2020

Event Focus Automated Vehicles Symposium Highlights
Primary Innovation Sensor Fusion & V2X Communication

The September 2020 edition of the CAV News Digest highlights a significant shift in the industry. Because global events have accelerated the need for touchless and autonomous solutions, staying informed is vital. One of the most important events of the year occurs every summer, and the recorded sessions offer a wealth of knowledge. This Automated Vehicle Technology Trends report focuses on how agencies can adapt to these rapid changes. Consequently, the digest serves as a bridge between high-level research and practical field applications.

Advancing CAV Hardware and Software Integration

Understanding the evolution of CAV requires a focus on both hardware and software integration. Specifically, the fusion of sensor data with connected vehicle communication is a primary area of growth. Because we are committed to “Mobility for Humanity,” we aim to provide the most relevant updates for transportation professionals. Therefore, focusing on Automated Vehicle Technology Trends reveals several technical advancements.

Additionally, our focus on connected infrastructure allows for a more seamless transition toward full autonomy. By following these Automated Vehicle Technology Trends, transportation departments can reduce congestion and improve road safety. Consequently, we continue to innovate by providing advanced ITS solutions that prepare cities for the next generation of mobility. We encourage you to explore the full digest and the symposium sessions to see how we are building a better future together.
