A world unique test facility for Active SafetyOpened 21 of August 2014

A unique collaboration

Business as usual mode of development

Infrastructure and city development

Vehicle development

Communication system development

Non- coordinated development can realize only parts of the potential forsafe, green, human-centric cities and infrastructure

Integrated mode of developmentInfrastructure and city development

Vehicle development

Communication system development

Coordinated development allow realization of the full

potential forsafe, green and human-centric

cities and infrastructure

AstaZero is a proving ground that can support integrated research into all three subtopics, unlocking the full potential of a

new integrated field

Started and running examples of infrastructure research

• Test area for cyclists- softer pavement- RISE

• Tests of construction of heated roads- Chalmers, Vegvesen

• A-TEAM phase 1- FFI

Research challenges and possibilities- some examples

- Testing of automated vehicles. How to test them? What equipment is needed?- What activities can be allowed when driving autonomously?

- Active safety for infrastructure- detection cameras in intersections etc.- Complete vehicle functional safety verification for cooperating vehicles

- Complete vehicle functional safety verification for electrified road vehicles- Traffic control in cities when automated vehicles gets common- Efficient, compact, safe and connected bus stops of the future

- Road infrastructure optimized for automated vehicles- Planning of the good city emplying e-mobility and active safety as means for a safer and more

sustainable urban environment - New types of HMIs for vehicles

- New solutions for safe traffic environments for vulnerable mobility system users- New solutions for safe traffic environments for elderly mobility users

- Etc.
