Title: "Les Techniques de l’Information et de la Communication pour la Conception de Systèmes Avancés de Mobilité durable en Milieu Urbain."
-
International Partner (Institution - Laboratory - Researcher):
- Simon Bolivar University, Department of Mecatronics – Venezuela. Dr. Gerardo Fernandez

The main objective of this project is to contribute scientifically and technically to the design of advanced sustainable mobility systems in urban areas, particularly in dense cities where mobility, comfort and safety needs are more important than in other types of cities. In this project, we will focus on the contribution of advanced systems of perception, communication and control for the realization of intelligent transport systems capable of gradually integrating into the urban landscape. These systems require the development of advanced dedicated urban infrastructures as well as the development and integration of on-board intelligence in individual vehicles or mass transport.
