Product description
The presentation will elaborate on the necessity of control centers for both automated public transport systems and smart road infrastructures. We start with a brief introduction to the Test Area for Autonomous Driving Baden-Württemberg constituting a smart road infrastructure for testing and operating novel mobility concepts as well as on the FZI shuttles constituting a fleet of autonomous public transport systems for the last mile of public transport. Based on the different purposes of the systems, we show the potentials of their synergetic interconnection and requirements on monitoring and supervising functional properties of the systems, such as the position of vehicles as well as on properties regarding non-functional properties, such as the health of components and systems.
