i2010 & the Intelligent Car Initiative Smarter improve efficiency and safety. Safer prevent and mitigate the impact of accidents. Cleaner contributing to reduce polluting emissions Intelligent Car On June 1, 2005 the Commission adopted the initiative “i2010: European Information Society 2010 for growth and employment” The Intelligent Car is one of the i2010 Flagship Initiatives. The objective is to improve the quality of the living environment by supporting ICT solutions for safer, smarter and cleaner mobility of people and goods. … addressing environmental and safety issues arising from increased road use

Intelligent Car Initiative: Challenges 1. Congestion Costs amount to 50 billion €/ year 10 % of the Road network is affected daily by traffic jams 2. Energy Efficiency & Emissions Road transport consumed 83% of the energy consumed by the whole transport sector 85% of the total CO 2 transport emissions 3. Safety still over fatalities and 1.4 million accidents in the EU cost represent 2% of the EU GDP Human error is involved in almost 93% of accidents

Intelligent Car: Objectives Objectives of the Intelligent Car Initiative 1.Coordinate and support the work of relevant stakeholders, citizens, Member States and the Industry 2.Support research and development in the area of smarter, cleaner and safer vehicles and facilitate the take-up and use of research results 3.Create awareness of ICT based solutions to stimulate user’s demand for these systems and create socio-economic acceptance

Intelligent Car: Structure The i2010 Intelligent Car Initiative will build on the work of the eSafety initiative and follow a three – pillar approach: (1) The eSafety Initiative and the (2) RTD in Information and Communications Technologies (3) Awareness raising Actions RTD in ICTs FP5, FP6, FP7 The eSafety Forum Awareness Raising Actions Intelligent Car Initiative

2nd Pillar: The Research Programme FP7 ICT for Mobility Main action lines: Enhance performance of Active Safety Systems Further step in the development of truly Cooperative Systems (vehicle-vehicle, vehicle-road) Info-mobility services for persons and goods – a new step forward Field operational tests: Share objective data between key stakeholders: industry-operators-MS

The awareness pillar of the Intelligent Car Initiative will promote, active information dissemination to a wide audience: To raise drivers and policy maker’s knowledge about the potential of intelligent vehicle systems To stimulate user’s demand and create socio- economic acceptance To facilitate the deployment of mature technologies and systems in the initial phase of market penetration To encourage stakeholders initiatives supporting i2010 Third Pillar: Awareness Actions

Intelligent Systems: Expected Impact eCall if all vehicles were equipped by 2010: Reduction in fatalities between 5% and 15% Savings up to a maximum of 22 billion €. Reduced congestion times between 10% and 20% with additional cost savings of between 2 to 4 billion €. Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) only 3% of the vehicles equipped: save up to accidents in 2010 Lateral Support with a penetration rate of only 0.6%, in 2010: save accidents could be saved Better traffic management through improved software and real-time traffic data: reduce of up to 40% of traffic standstill and congestion

Launching of the Intelligent Car Initiative  more than 250 stakeholders  85 journalists & camera teams  400 registered  Commissioner Reding presented the Communication on the Intelligent Car Initiative  display of 24 “intelligent” vehicles equipped with safety features eight simulators illustrating the way such safety devices function Held in Brussels’ Autoworld Museum on 23 February 2006

Embedded systems: Facts & figures 0 2,000 4,000 6,000 8,000 10,000 12,000 14, world population microprocessors+ PCs millions Strong growth: Annual growth rate: 10 % A smart phone contains millions of lines of code 18 of top 25 EU companies rely on embedded systems; they spend € 50 bn annually in R&D By 2010: Number of embedded components expected to grow to 16 billion worldwide Electronics account for up to 40% of a vehicle’s value

R&D Support is Fragmented 17 EU Competitiveness Council and EUREKA Ministers call for closer cooperation and more synergy between FP and EUREKA – Instrumental role for ETPs, JTIs Strategic Priority Embedded Systems within IST/FP6 – 58 M€ funding in Call 2 and 75 M€ in Call 5; also ES elsewhere in IST National/regional programmes – e.g. in NL: PROGRESS, ESI ICT cluster projects within EUREKA – ITEA ( ): software-intensive systems; 3.2 B€ costs – MEDEA+ ( ): systems on silicon; 4.0 B€ costs
