Our projects

SEBRA

SEnsor for Bicycle’s impRoved Awareness (SEBRA) will identify the most relevant traffic safety related use-cases that involve bicycles. Then, a radar-based safety system for bicycles is developed with both sensors and human interface. Finally, the system is evaluated in relevant

Injury HBM, step 4

The complete name of the project is ”Pelvis and spine injury predicting models for women and men in a variety of sitting postures in future autonomous cars”. The project is called "I-HBM4", since it is the fourth phase in the

HEADSTART

Harmonised European Solutions for Testing Automated Road Transport (HEADSTART) will define testing and validation procedures of functions including its key enabling technologies (i.e. communication, cyber-security, positioning) by cross-linking of all test instances such as simulation, proving ground and real-world field

ARCADE

Aligning Research and innovation for Connected and Automated Driving in Europe (ARCADE) is the continuation of CARTRE (SAFER project performed between 2016-2018) with the mission to coordinate consensus-building across stakeholders for sound and harmonized deployment of Connected, Cooperative and Automated

SÄMO

Safe mobility on a bicycle for sustainable aging (SAMÖ) will identify factors that make the elderly choose the cycle before other means of transport to a greater extent. The project will also contribute to marketing of bicycles that are better

DRAMA - Driver and passenger activity mapping

The DRAMA project develops knowledge within driver activity mapping to improve interaction between semi-automated and automated vehicles and human drivers and passengers - with the overall goal to improve traffic safety and driver/passenger comfort. With correct classifications of what the

A-HBM Step 4

The FFI project A-HBM step 4 (Active human body models for virtual occupant response, step 4) follows the recently completed project A-HBM Step 3, in which muscle activation methodology was developed and implemented recreating occupant motion in braking and steering

HARMONISE

HARMONISE - Safe interaction with different levels of automation Investigate different means to harmonise, simplify, manage and improve how drivers interact with technical systems that automate parts of or all of the dynamic driving task in the vehicle. Design to

VICTIg - Vehicle ICT Innovation Methodology PART II

VICTIg is a collaboration project between the SAFER partners VTI (Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute) and Halmstad University. The aim is to discover better methods for development and test of software functions for cooperative, automated and assisted vehicle

CRASHED

Video and time series data collected through Video Event Recorder (VER) equipment installed in vehicles have been identified as a valuable source for insights into the causation of crashes. Previous collaborations with a commercial company providing behaviour-based-safety services allowed the

WARA-CAT

Wallenberg Autonomous Systems and Software Program (WASP) is a large national research program involving several universities as well as industrial partners. WARA-CAT (Wallenberg Autonomous Research Arenas – Collaborative Autonomous Transport) is part of WASP and aims at providing test equipment

Microwaves and Electrical bio-impedance for diagnosing thoracic injuries

Microwaves and Electrical bio-impedance for diagnosing thoracic injuries: Test on a porcine pneumothorax and haemothorax model. In this pilot-study the objective was to determine if microwaves and electrical bio-impedance could have the potential to detectthoracic injuries commonly occurring in road

Prehospital transportation decisions for patients sustaining major trauma in road traffic crashes

The objective was to determine if patients sustaining major trauma in road traffic crashes in Sweden were transported to the most appropriate hospital or not for treatment, i.e. if "trauma centers" were utilized as expected. The study was carried out

On Scene Injury Severity Prediction (OSISP)

On Scene Injury Severity Prediction (OSISP) Algorithm Improvement Using Data Science The objective was to enhance an existing OSISP algorithm in four dimensions. These dimensions are performance, validity, usability and generalizability. The approach is based on the use of big

Detecting Traumatic Intracranial Haemorrhage with Microwave Technology

An open study evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of a microwave-based device to detect traumatic intracranial haemorrhage (TICH), by comparing measurements on trauma patients with confirmed vs excluded TICH. This open study will enrol trauma patients admitted to the Trauma Unit,

Detecting Chronic Subdural Hematoma with Microwave Technology

Detecting Chronic Subdural Hematoma with Microwave Technology - An open study evaluating the sensitivity and specificity of a microwave-based device, Medfield Strokefinder MD100, to detect chronic subdural hematoma (CSH), by comparing measurements on patients recruited for surgery of chronic subdural
