Abstract :
The core concept of the project, presented in this paper, is to enable the future availability of a modular cooperative system that will bring together sensor and communication technologies permitting to all road users (vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles, pedestrians) to take an active part in the reduction of the number of accidents that involve vulnerable road users. For this, legacy detection technologies, such as infrared or radar are enhanced by a RF-based communication.
