Track 4 – FOTs & Simulation
—Providing input to Safety Pilot-Obtain lessons learned
—Analyze applications for Field Operational Tests (FOT) selection –  2013
—Planning for FOTs will occur in late 2012 with stakeholder input for selection in 2013
—FOTs will be used to gather valuable safety data and assess the benefits for deployment
—FOTs may be integrated into regional demonstration projects including multi-modal safety applications and dynamic mobility applications
—
Track 4 will produce applications benefits assessments through controlled demonstrations and field operational testing.  Real world data will be collected and analyzed in order to gain a better understanding of the market potential and level of market penetration needed to enable existing and future systems.

<FOTs may also include closed course tests.>
