The PAsCAL Project at the TRA Conference 2022

The implications of introduction into society? of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAV)

Show yourself at the Transport Research Arena 2022 in Lisbon – Europe’s largest research and technology conference on transport and mobility? – the valuable contributions offered by the PAsCAL project in terms of the introduction of connected and autonomous vehicles.

With over 2,000 participants, the TRA represents one of the most prestigious contexts for presenting the results of the PAsCAL* Project (https://www.pascal-project.eu/), funded by the “Horizon 2020” Research and Innovation programme, which seen the involvement of 12 important European partners – Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology, Universita? of Mannheim, University? of Leeds, University? of Liverpool, University? of Bourgogne Franche-Comte?, RED Driving School, European Blind Union, Etela?ta?r Innovation, Inetum, E-Bus Competence Center, Automobile Club Italia and LuxMobility.

Three years of work, including surveys, simulations and practical tests, have allowed PAsCAL to develop a multidimensional map of public acceptance of the upper levels of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) and to create a “Guide2Autonomy” (G2A), a set of guidelines and recommendations aimed at accelerating the user-friendly evolution of connected autonomous vehicles and transport systems.

Thanks to the PAsCAL project, do we now know what it is? the current perception that consumers-users of mobility? have on CAVs, what would be the implications of introducing connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) into society? and, thinking of vulnerable travellers, what are the requirements to guarantee them full accessibility? to this innovative modality? of mobility?.

*ACI is a partner of the European project PAsCAL – acronym for “Enhance driver behavior and Public Acceptance of Connected and Autonomous vehicLes” – a project aimed at developing a multidimensional map of the acceptance by the public of the higher levels of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV), highlighting any critical issues in the matter, in particular investigating the new needs of “drivers” considering different mobility methods and services. The goal of PAsCAL is, in fact, to create a “Guide2Autonomy” (G2A), a set of guidelines and recommendations to accelerate the user-friendly evolution of connected automated transport systems and vehicles – Flyer (https://www.aci.it/fileadmin/documenti/ACI/Iniziative_e_progetti/PAsCAL_Flyer_2020_bis.pdf)

The project is funded by the European Union’s research and innovation program “Horizon 2020” with the Financing Agreement No. 815098
