Major IntelliDrive Objectives
  • Move aggressively on vehicle to vehicle communications
        • Regulatory Decision on In-Vehicle Equipment by 2013
  • Accelerate in-vehicle technology
        • “Here I Am” messages
        • Aftermarket  Safety Systems
        • Enables safety and active traffic management
  • Accelerate infrastructure communications capability
        • Signal Phase and Timing (SPaT) as initial focus
        • Enables safety, mobility, and environmental applications
  • On road multi-modal pilot deployments for high-value applications
  • Monitor and evaluation of driver distraction issues
  • Understand benefits and communications needs (DSRC/other) of transformative mobility applications

Evolution of IntelliDrive Deployment
  • Original VII Deployment Model
    • DSRC based for all applications
      • Infrastructure intensive using new DSRC technology
      • Vehicle turnover for embedded DSRC technology
    • Start with V2I (for all application types) and evolve into V2V (safety)
  • US DOT’s Current Perspective on IntelliDrive Deployment
    • Non-safety (mobility, environment)
      • Leverage existing data sources  & communications; include DSRC as it becomes available
      • Support development of key applications for public agencies using current data sources and evolving probe data from IntelliDrive
    • Safety à DSRC
      • Aggressively pursue V2V; leverage vehicle capability for V2I spot safety
      • Can leveraging of nomadic devices & retrofitting accelerate benefits?
      • Infrastructure requirement for security is still a TBD


5
Key Elements of the IntelliDrive Safety Program
  • DSRC for low latency needs
  • OEM, retrofit, aftermarket device scenarios being considered for deployment
  • All vehicle types being examined for value added applications
  • Programs are structured towards achieving deployment
  • Establishing national level interoperability àOpen standards for communications and data
  • Introduction of new systems/devices must consider driver distraction safety issues
  • Ensure adequate levels of security
  • Protect personal privacy
  • Activities supportive of mobility and convenience applications

IntelliDrive Real Time Data Capture and Management
  • Vision
  • Active acquisition and systematic provision of integrated, multi-source data to enhance current operational practices and transform future surface transportation systems management


  • Objectives
  • Enable systematic data capture from connected vehicles (automobiles, transit, trucks), mobile devices, and infrastructure
  • Develop data environments that enable integration of data from multiple sources for use in transportation management and performance measurement
  • Reduce costs of data management and eliminate technical and institutional barriers to the capture, management, and sharing of data
9
IntelliDrive Dynamic Mobility Applications
  • Vision
  • Expedite development, testing, commercialization, and deployment of innovative mobility applications:
      • maximize system productivity
      • enhance mobility of individuals within the system

  • Objectives
  • Create applications using frequently collected and rapidly disseminated multi-source data from connected travelers, vehicles (automobiles, transit, freight) and infrastructure
  • Develop and assess applications showing potential to improve nature, accuracy, precision and/or speed of dynamic decision making by system managers and system users
  • Demonstrate promising applications predicted to significantly improve capability of transportation system to provide safe, reliable, and secure movement of goods and people
