The U.S. DOT’s Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS-JPO) has concluded a three-day, free workshop at which the DOT’s IntelliDrive Safety program research roadmaps were presented and discussed. Slides from the IntelliDrive Safety Workshop’s first six presenters are now available for download in pdf format.

Note: Subsequent to the initial publication of this article, the US-DOT ceased using the name “Intellidrive” for its Connected Vehicle Research program

 
The event’s agenda listed the following overall objectives for the Workshop:

• Provide an information briefing on IntelliDrive Safety Programs
• Solicit stakeholder feedback for refinement of IntelliDrive Safety Program roadmaps
• Engage in policy discussions in order to identify and focus program activities on the most critical issues supporting deployment

The complete three-day Workshop’s agenda is available here (pdf file).
