WATCH-OVER

WATCH-OVER - Vehicle-to-Vulnerable roAd user cooperaTive communication and sensing teCHnologies to imprOVE transpoRt safety... WATCH-OVER started in January 2006. It is a specific targeted project co-funded by the European Commission Information Society Technologies in the strategic objective "eSafety Co-operative Systems for Road Transport"... The development of eSafety Co-operative Systems for Road Transport has been growing significantly in recent years. Through the use of wireless communication systems, these systems are designed to help improve safety on roads and highways by assisting drivers in avoiding potential hazards and enabling emergency response teams to quickly respond if needed. The underlying technology behind these systems is based on Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications. V2V enables vehicles to communicate with each other, exchanging information such as position, speed, direction, and acceleration data. This information can..
