The symposium "AstaZero Researchers' Day" will be held on May 10, 2016 on the proving ground AstaZero in Sweden. The symposium serves as a forum for researchers, experts, and practitioners to explore and discuss recent research results, challenges, and opportunities in the area of intelligent and safe vehicular systems.

Starts: 10 May, 2016, 08:00
Ends: 10 May, 2016, 16:15

Description
Nowadays, modern vehicles are powered by complex functions for comfort, safety, and even semi-autonomous driving. These functions range from lane-keeping assistants, over emergency braking guards, to piloted driving for traffic jam situations. In the future, more and more traffic situations will be even covered by cooperative and semi-autonomous functions.

The increasing road traffic will create problems in terms of congestion, road safety and stress on the environment. Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) offer solutions to this by communication-based functionality to reduce congestion, improve traffic safety and to minimize impact on the environment. All road users will benefit from ITS applications.

Keynote
”ITS from an Ericsson perspective”
presented by Staffan Wallin,
 Director Sales and Business Development at Ericsson Business Line Industry & Society
