Program Categories

  • Connected Vehicles program category will be primarily focused on adoption and

eventual deployment of the system.

  • Automation Research will focus on topics related to automated road-vehicle

systems and related technologies that transfer some amount of vehicle control from the driver to the vehicle.

  • Emerging Capabilities will focus on future generations of transportation systems.
  • Enterprise Data programs will continue existing efforts in operational data capture

from stationary sensors, mobile devices, and connected vehicles, and expand into research activities involving the development of mechanisms for housing, sharing, analyzing, transporting, and applying those data for improved safety and mobility across all modes of travel.

  • Interoperability focuses on how to ensure effective connectivity among devices and

systems.

  • Accelerating Deployment advances the work from adoption to wider scale

deployment in coordination with several other DOT agencies.

Connected vehicles are the future of transportation:

  • Connected vehicles can save lives by

significantly reducing traffic accidents

  • Connected vehicles can make travel easier,

more efficient, and more enjoyable

  • Connected vehicles can help curb pollution
  • Connected vehicles include all modes of

transportation as well as pedestrians

  • Connected vehicle research is a partnership

between the USDOT, the auto industry, and

  • ther public and private researchers
  • Connected vehicles are not a threat to your

privacy

  • Full automation has the potential to revolutionize the transportation

system but requires careful study

  • Partial automation will likely provide significant transportation

system benefits

  • Connectivity is critical to safe and

efficient operations

Strategic Themes

  • Enable Safer Vehicles and Roadways by developing better crash avoidance,

performance measures, and other notification mechanisms, commercial motor vehicle safety considerations, infrastructure-based, and cooperative safety systems.

  • Enhance Mobility by exploring methods and management strategies that increase

system efficiency and improve individual mobility.

  • Limit Environmental Impacts by better managing traffic flow, speeds, congestion, and

using technology to address other vehicle and roadway operational practices.

  • Promote Innovation by fostering technological advancement and innovation across

the ITS Program, continuously pursuing a visionary/exploratory research agenda, and aligning the pace of technology development, adoption, and deployment to meet future transportation needs.

  • Support Transportation Connectivity through the development of standards and

systems architectures, and the application of advanced wireless technologies that enable communications among and between vehicles of all types, the infrastructure, and portable devices.
