The aim of the project was to set up and permanently operate a (separate & not StVO-bound) test field for automated and connected driving, consisting of a test intersection including the necessary intersection-side infrastructure (associated partner Siemens) such as traffic areas, traffic lights, sensors and V2X communication infrastructure, on which various tests on automated driving are carried out, especially in interaction with "vulnerable road users" such as cyclists and pedestrians.
The test intersection is used to test, validate and certify automated and networked vehicles in a secure environment (together with the associated partner TÜV Süd) before the developed vehicle control algorithms are evaluated and tested in real road traffic. The TUM's AVF and existing AVFs of the project partners Augsburg University of Applied Sciences and EasyMile will be used here. Special focus is placed on networking, communication and interaction with the traffic infrastructure and VRU.
The aim of the project is to make interactions between vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists and automated vehicles such as automated shuttle buses in public transport safer and more efficient.
The test intersection is currently being set up in Taufkirchen in the south of Munich together with IABG and the Free State of Bavaria.
