Smart Mobility Projects

TU/e develops technologies in vehicles to improve safety, traffic flow and ease of use. TU/e studies driver assistance systems, vehicle dynamics and human-technology interaction. Within our Smart Mobility strategic area we have made significant progress.

TU/e develops technologies in vehicles to improve safety, traffic flow and ease of use. TU/e studies for example driver assistance systems, vehicle dynamics and human-technology interaction. Within our Smart Mobility Strategic Area we have made significant progress, through projects in which TU/e cooperates with industry and academia.

Some of our projects are:

• i-CAVE – Integrated Cooperative Automated VEhicles

This project is a collaboration of researchers, industry and governments in order to develop vehicles that can drive both autonomously (on separate, closed roads) as well as cooperative on public roads.

Vi-das

VI-DAS: Vision Inspired Driver Assistance Systems is an EC funded H2020 project. Our goal is improved road safety by development and deployment of ADAS and navigation aids in societally acceptable and personalized manner, based on a reliable combination of the overall traffic scene understanding and essential consideration of the driver’s physical, mental, demographic and behavioral state.

Autopilot

“Automated driving Progressed by Internet Of Things” (AUTOPILOT) brings IoT into the automotive world to transform connected vehicles — moving ”things” in the IoT ecosystem — into highly and fully automated vehicles.

Everlasting

Electric Vehicle Enhanced Range, Lifetime And Safety Through INGenious battery management. The EVERLASTING project will develop innovative technologies to improve the reliability, lifetime and safety of Lithium-ion batteries by developing more accurate, and standardized, battery monitoring and management systems.

Mobilus

The MOBiLus consortium (Mobility for Livable Urban Spaces) has been granted 400 million euro to set up an organization that focusses on education, research and valorization in the field of urban mobility. A total of 1.6 billion euro is allocated over programs for the next 7 years.

AutoDrive

Advancing fail-aware, fail-safe, and fail-operational electronic components, systems, and architectures for highly and fully automated driving to make future mobility safer, more efficient, affordable, and end-user acceptable.

4C4More

The key idea behind 4C4More is to create economies of scale through partnerships within and between distribution chains. The concrete results will be cheaper production, transportation, and storage, using fewer materials and with fewer emissions.

4C4D

TU/e and Tilburg University aim to improve transport options within cities, while reducing emissions, traffic jams, and noise pollution achieved by combining goods traffic, which can be accomplished through sharing freight space and combining planning and routes.

More Efficient Transport to flower auctions

The DaVinc3i project aims to bolster the Dutch horticulture sector by developing concepts for coordination, consolidation, and collaboration in the distribution chain.
