Visible to the public CPS:Small: Transforming a City's Transportation Infrastructure Through an Embedded Pervasive Communication Network

The objective of this inter-disciplinary research is to develop new technologies that transform the streets of a city into a hybrid transportation/communication system, called the Intelligent Road (iRoad), where autonomous wireless devices are co-located with traffic signals, forming a wireless network that fuses real-time transportation data from all over the city to support a wide range of new applications.

Visible to the public Autonomous Driving in Urban Environments

This CPS research focuses on collaborative driving, specifically in convoy type applications, and testing of hybrid systems. Specfically, this research investigates the development of the computational issues and testing aspects of a newer, more tactical hybrid state autonomous controller for multi-robot exploration scenarios for DSTO Multi Autonomous Ground-robotic International Challenge (MAGIC 2010) and the evaluation of th eautomotive convoy-based scenarios of the Grand Cooperative Driving Challenge (May 2011).
