Our projects

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

VIRTUAL

VIRTUAL: Open Access Virtual Testing Protocols for Enhanced Road User Safety The overall objective is to improve the safety of urban road users by providing procedures and open access tools to assess the benefit of novel safety systems. The goal

OSCCAR

The EU Horizon 2020 research project "OSCCAR - Future O ccupant S afety for C rashes in Car s" - develops a novel, simulation based approach to safeguard occupants involved in future vehicle accidents. Highly automated vehicles will offer new,

Compcrash 2

Tillförlitlig krockmodellering av fiberkompositer för lättviktsfordon (Compcrash 2) Compcrash 2 involves joint work on crash behaviour of composite materials by two PhD students who have previously worked in two separate projects “Compcrash 1” and “FFI-Crash 2”. The main aim has

ICONIC

ICONIC - Improving the crashworthiness of composite transportation structures The European aerospace, automotive, and rail industries are committed to improving their energy efficiency to meet targets set within the EU’s climate, energy and transport policies. This is motivating the increased

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,

RealSIM

Realistic simulation of vehicles for safer, more robust and less expensive development of automated vehicles. It is very expensive and time consuming to annotate e.g. “real” video data to use it for training of e.g. neural networks. This project aims

iDolly

In this project researchers from Chalmers and Volvo Group, in collaboration with several other companies, will develop technologies for transporting containers on public roads, completely autonomous, without drivers. The tests will be conducted at AstaZero test track and at Viared

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 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

Drive Sweden Test Site Automated Highway I + II

The project will improve visibility and coordination between actors and projects for testing and demo of autonomous regional and long-distance transport. Regular meetings between the partners and the collaboration with CLOSER have given a common picture of what's going on.

Computerized Clinical Decision Support

Step 1: Computerized Clinical Decision Support To Improve Trauma Triage and Risk Assessment: A Low fidelity OSISP prototype The first step of the project aim was to design a low-fidelity prototype of a clinical decision support system utilizing an on-scene

Safer – Vehicle and Traffic Safety Centre

SAFER is the open innovation arena where researchers and expertise work together to create safe mobility. Our traffic safety approach covers people, vehicles and the infrastructure – and together we contribute to safer road transports and smarter, more sustainable cities.
