Traffic congestion is a growing problem in most urban areas across the world. In recent years, the problem has often been tackled by management of existing capacity rather than the traditional concept of more road building. This requires efficient traffic ...
We propose a new class of applications for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITSs), called collaborative transportation applications that aim at solving transportation problems such as congestion and parking. Specifically, we define two applications: Sma ...
Flying robots have the unique advantage of being able to move through the air unaffected by the obstacles or precipices below them. This ability quickly becomes a disadvantage, however, as the amount of free space is reduced and the risk of collisions incr ...
This paper summarizes two novel ways to extend brain-computer interface (BCI) systems. One way involves hybrid BCIs. A hybrid BCI is a system that combines a BCI with another device to help people send information. Different types of hybrid BCIs are discus ...
The number of vehicles hitting the road each day is rapidly increasing, and several problems, such as traffic conges- tion or driver safety, can no longer be solved in the same fashion as before. Intelligent transportation systems could potentially solve p ...
This work presents the modeling methodology of the iTETRIS platform to integrate and simulate ITS applications. iTETRIS is a modular and open-source simulation platform composed of four key modules: the network simulator ns-3, the traffic simulator SUMO, a ...
V2X communication - communication between vehicles (V2V) and between vehicles and infrastructure (V2I) - promises new methods for traffic management by supplying new data and by opening new ways to inform drivers about the current situation on the roads. C ...
The results of a field experiment carried out to assess the accuracy and efficiency of a new in-vehicle navigation algorithm, whose aim is to incorporate and consider travel time reliability and route the guided vehicle along uncongested roads, in the abse ...
“Pavement conditions from intelligent pavements and intelligent vehicles”, aims to improve the management of road network maintenance through smart methods able to predict the deterioration process and actual condition in unobtrusive ways and to make this ...
The presented research has been carried out within the European project Intelligent Roads (INTRO). The major objective followed was to assess the potential of optical fiber for pavement monitoring in comparison with classical strain gauges. Thus, both meas ...
