ECOS Nord – Venezuela

• ECOS Nord

• 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

  - Inria, RITS Project-Team – France. Dr. Fawzi Nashashibi

• Duration: Jan. 2014 - Dec. 2017

• Start year: 2014

• 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.

  This year, a session of courses has been organized at University Simon Bolivar, Caracas (Venezuela). Following several PhDs and interns recruitments from this university, prof G. Fernandez and J. Capeletto invited Raoul de Charette to organize a 32Hr Computer Vision Master Class in December 2017. PhDs Carlos Flores and Luis Roldao were also part of the master class and teached control (10Hr) and point cloud processing (7Hr), respectively.
