The AWARD project is launching a new survey aimed at better understanding people’s views on automated vehicles in their everyday lives, as well as their design and functionalities.
Information on the survey :
The European “AWARD” project is dedicated to the automation of heavy vehicles in logistics operations. It is composed of a consortium of 29 European partners in 12 countries, of which CARA is a member, and is led by Easymile, a CARA member.
This large-scale project is funded by the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 programme to the tune of €26 million. It started on 1 January 2021 and will end on 31 December 2023.
AWARD will develop and enable an autonomous transport system in a wide range of real-life situations and scenarios. The project will develop an Assistant Driver System (ADS) able to deal with adverse environmental conditions such as heavy rain, snow and fog.
