How cars and infrastructure work together in urban automated driving

Connected infrastructure sensors will make automated driving safer and more efficient. The MEC-View project partners have developed the corresponding hardware and software for this purpose; the system processes the images and signals from the infrastructure sensors, combines them with high-resolution digital maps (HD maps), and transmits them to the vehicle over the air. There, the data merges with the vehicle’s own sensor information to create an accurate picture of the situation, including all relevant road users.
