IoT*= Internet of Things20
The teaming up of automotive and digital sector is hugely important for Europe’s global competitiveness.
The automotive and digital sector is committed • to work on common roadmaps to speed up the
development and deployment of connected automated driving.
• These roadmaps will cover better connectivity, mobile network coverage and reliability, the take-up of connected automated driving and how to address any security and privacy concerns of users.

UP TO LEVEL 5 AUTOMATION
= DRIVER OUT OF
THE LOOP
Objective: Autonomous vehicles in a connected environment: optimal combination of local & distributed information and intelligence
Added value and potential of applying IoTCRITICAL: strong use case & business case & strong commitment from the pilot host(s) -> Maximise impact
IoT SERVICES

IoT for autonomous vehicles in a connected environment
Paving the way to deployment up to FULL AUTOMATION*
1. OBTAINED VIA Optimal combination of Autonomy & Connectivity• Local information & intelligence = autonomy (of individual vehicles) Essential for SAFETY in REAL ENVIRONMENT: mixed traffic with legacy vehicles, lost connection, pedestrians, etc.
• Distributed information & intelligence = IoT connectivity for improved performance: adding redundancy, prediction & longer term
planning, higher level scene understanding, etc.
2. ALLOWING Innovative IoT services: driver out of the loop
* LEVEL 5 - SAE J301624
Foster deployment in real trafficSustainable pilots & Permanent installations
• Requires commitment from the pilot hosts, authorities, etc.
Demonstrate Technical performances in real environment
• Dependability (incl. safety), robustness and resilience, usability
Address non-technical aspects• Maximise added value to users
scenario: urban, highway, dedicated lanes or mixed environment, etc.• User acceptance and User behaviour• Economic, legal, regulatory and ethical issues
25
Scope• What do we want to achieve with this pilot?
• Direct outcomeDemonstrate the socio-economic(-logic) benefit of automated
connected car deployed in real environment, made possible through addressing the technical and non-technical issues
• Impact (short term, mid-term)Short term: - Standardization (interoperability of platforms, modules, etc.) - New business models, open service platforms- Punctual deployment of these scenarios in other
cities/countries + new value-added servicesLong term: - Ubiquitous deployment + new market sectors in IoT services
26
Core technologies include• Reliable and real-time platforms managing mixed criticality car
services• Integration of State of the Art embedded components (advanced sensors,
components, actuators)• Advanced sensors and Internet information sources
• Efficient navigation• In car embedded (sub)systems for autonomous navigation, real-time up-dates on
road, transport conditions, pattern recognition
• Improved decision-making algorithms• Beyond advanced driver assistance systems• Optimisation of local and distributed information and intelligence
• Interconnectivity between vehicles, vehicle to infrastructure communication• Communication and network technologies (e.g.: 4G, IEEE 802.11p and LTE-V)• Mobile IoT - Interconnectivity V2V & V2I
• Supported by an open service platform • Access to all in vehicle embedded information sources • Data gathering from car surrounding information• In view of providing value-added apps e.g. intelligent maintenance 27
Structure• What efforts do we need on the demand side? • Essential:
• Pilot driven by strong use and business case -> requires representatives from user side, car industry, expert in ELSE (ethical / legal / socio-economic aspects) representative insurance companies (as appropriate)
• Innovative Services providers (in particular enabling level 5)• Strong commitment from the pilot host(s) -> local authorities,
public bodies, political support
• How would the ideal consortium look like? • TECH• INDUSTRY: running business around it – economic beneficiaries• PILOT HOSTS• USERS• Experts in non-technical issues (ELSE, perception, trust, etc.)
optimize the constellation and balance as required by the pilot28
Stakeholders• Who are the stakeholders?
• TECH:• OEMs: Components and Subsystems• Technology providers: Robotics, Comms & Network, platforms for
mixed criticalities, software, etc.• IoT Services / Applications (APP developers, service providers, ...)
• INDUSTRY• Car industry (Car manufacturers, integrators, new entrants,...) • Insurance companies (enabler)
• PILOT HOSTS• Infrastructure providers & Public Authorities (city, regions, ministries,
parking, electricity providers (GRID) in case of electric cars, etc.) • USERS
• Users and end-users representatives (rental cars, drivers, etc.)• Experts in non-technical issues (ELSE*, regulation, etc.)
