  1. WELCOME International Task Force on Vehicle-Highway Automation 16th Annual Meeting

  2. INTRODUCTION

  3. What is ITFVHA? • A forum to discuss government-industry roles in development and deployment of advanced driver assistance systems • An informal group for exchange of information and strengthening global linkages

  4. ITFVHA Approach • Invitation-only gathering • “core community” of established programs • countries exploring strategy/benefits for • Advanced Driver Assistance Ssytems (ADAS) • Connected Vehicle-Highway Systems (CVHS) • Vehicle-Highway Automation (VHA) • Independent of other ITS activities and forums • Proceedings generated

  5. History of ITFVHA • Organizational meeting: 1996, Orlando • First meeting: 1997, San Diego, sponsored by NAHSC • Second meeting: 1998, Delft, Netherlands, sponsored by Rijkswaterstaat • Third meeting: 1999, Toronto, sponsored by ITS America • Fourth meeting: 2000, Tsukuba City, sponsored by MOC/AHSRA • Fifth meeting: 2001, Sydney, sponsored by ITS Australia / AAA • Sixth meeting: 2002, Chicago, sponsored by TRB and ITS America • Seventh meeting: 2003, Paris, sponsored by LIVIC • Eighth meeting: 2004, Nagoya, sponsored by MLIT / AHSRA • Ninth meeting: 2005, San Francisco, sponsored by ITS America / USDOT • Tenth meeting: 2006, London, sponsored by UK Highways Agency • Eleventh meeting: 2007, Versailles, sponsored by INRIA • Twelfth meeting: 2008, New York City, sponsored by Parsons-Brinkerhoff • Thirteenth meeting: 2009, Stockholm, sponsored by H3B Media • Fourteenth meeting: 2010, Busan, sponsored by Korean Transport Institute • Fifteenth meeting: 2011, Orlando, sponsored by Bishop Consulting

  7. Automation: Brief History

  8. Pre-1990 • 1939 World’s Fair: • General Motors Futurama • 1950’s – 1980’s • GM experiments / prototypes • buried wire guidance • USA, Japan, Germany

  9. 1990’s • (1990-94) European Prometheus program • 1000 km autonomous driving on public highway near Paris • (1993-99) USDOD Unmanned Ground Vehicles • (1993-98) USDOT AHS Program / Demo ’97 • National Automated Highway System Consortium (NAHSC) • 21 vehicles (cars, trucks, buses) • 8000 miles of demonstration rides with no malfunctions • Largest media event in history of ITS

  10. 2000’s • EC CHAUFFEUR truck platooning (1996 – 2002) • cooperative “electronic towbar” • Japan Ministry of Construction (1996- 2008) • platooning / Demo 2000 • UC Berkeley platooning of trucks/ buses (2001-11) • German INVENT program: traffic jam assistant (2001-05) • DARPA Grand/Urban Challenges (2004-07)

  11. 2000’s • Phileas dual-mode bus system (Netherlands) (2004) • Automatic mode: braking, steering, throttle fully automated • Guidance is based on magnetic markers every 4-5 m • Toyota Intelligent Multi-Modal Transit System (IMTS): Expo 2005 in Nagoya (2005) • driverless transit system with automated platoon operation on dedicated roads • served 27,000 persons daily at Expo 2005 • German KONVOI truck platooning in traffic (2005-09) • U.S. Army Convoy Active Safety Technology (2008-2010) • CyberCar demo Antibes

  12. 2010’s • Google unveils autonomous vehicle work (2010) • Autonomous Intercontinental Challenge (2010) • CyberCar demo La Rochelle (2011) • HAVE-IT Demo and Reports (2011) • highly automated driving • control transfer • minimum risk maneuver • SARTRE Demo (2012): • platooning • business case evaluations • Car-maker announcements for “mid-decade” • combined lat/lon control • traffic jam assist • full speed, full control prototypes unveiled

  13. Evolution: Vehicle – Highway Allocation of Intelligence • steady increase in vehicle intelligence • from buried wires • …..to magnetic nails • ……………to “nothing” in road • infrastructure intelligence still required to gain mobility / sustainability benefits (cooperative systems) • Dedicated lanes? A point of debate….

  14. Looking Back: What’s Different This Time? 1990’s This Decade Private sector investment dominates Automation competitively relevant goal: offer driver comfort many OEMs active OEM designs assume mixed traffic, roads-as-is Incremental, building on active safety sensors / V2X Opportunity is for transport sector to be smart followers • National Automated Highway System Consortium • Public sector led & funded • Visionary • Only one car company deeply involved • Technology foundation in early stages • Dedicated lanes important • Embedded magnetic markers • Transport goals foremost
