Real-traffic evaluation of benefits of cooperating vehicles in mixed traffic of human driven and self-driven vehicles
Research Project, 2027 – 2028

The main goal of the proposed research is to, in a simplified manner, deploy collaborative algorithms in real traffic to evaluate the benefits of different percentages of cooperating vehicles in a mixed environment with human drivers concerning energy savings, traffic flow and safety. The collaborative vehciles will be driven by human drivers receiving online driving instructions, and in this way mimic self-driving vehciles. The hope is that the results will motivate industry and road authorities to introduce these techniques broadly.
