Test crossing

For urban automated and connected driving

What did we do?

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.

How did we do it?

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.

Why did we do it?

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.

Where did we do it?

The test intersection is currently being set up in Taufkirchen in the south of Munich together with IABG and the Free State of Bavaria.

Who made it?

A diverse, cross-industry consortium that brings together partners from science, business and society.

What is MOSAIQ?
Imagine something: There is more space for people. The streets have more trees and plants. Everyone can get around better. That's how your Schwabing-West district could be in the future. How would you like your district to be? We want to talk to you about it!

The project is called MOSAIQ. MOSAIQ is a research∙project. MOSAIQ means: Mobility and urban climate in the future city∙part. The Technical University of Munich is leading the project.

What is MOSAIQ about?
MOSAIQ wants to make the streets in the city∙part more beautiful. People should feel comfortable there. There should be more space. For meetings and plants, for example. You can help decide what is tried out in the Stadt∙teil. The ideas come from you. Some ideas will be tried out on the streets for a certain period of time.
The aim of MOSAIQ is to make urban districts good places to live.
At the same time, the climate in the city should improve. And people should be able to move around the city easily. 

What is happening in the district?

  • In the year 2025:
    The people in the district can participate. They can express their ideas. There are discussions, surveys and meetings. Researchers are also starting their work.
  • In the year 2026:
    Some ideas are tried out.
    They are moved around the streets for a certain period of time.
  • In the year 2027:
    The results are evaluated.
    Consideration is given to how things can continue∙.
