Overview of the EMERGE initiative: Connected, geo-localized and cybersecure vehicles
Innovation goals, exploitation and impact
Innovation
-
-
- High accuracy – high integrity, multi-frequency, multi-constellation and multi-sensor geo-localization platform
- Augmentation networks for automotive/rail
- Cybersecurity platforms
- V2X platforms on heterogeneous networks including 5G & Satcom
- Edge-Computing and Cloud-based services
- Dynamic navigation in urban environment
-
Exploitation and impact
- Development of enabling technologies for connected/autonomous cars with stringent safety requirements (e.g. ERTMS in the rail domain)
- Validation through field trials that exploit 5G infrastructures and satellite technologies for both communication and localization
- Strengthen and develop research/education assets at UnivAQ and promote cooperation with industries
- Job opportunities in research and innovation in the academy, research centres, SMEs and large industry.
