COOPERS - Co-operative systems for intelligent road safety

COOPERS will enable vehicle data transmission for implementing interconnected services along the travel route.

The integrated EU project COOPERS runs over four years and started in January 2006. The overall budget is approximately 18 million Euro and the project is supported by the EU within the 6th European Union Frame work Programme for Research and Technological Development. Current road traffic information is marked by various communication networks for different specialised information services. This is the reason why communication possibilities between infrastructure operators and vehicles are a barrier for up-to date traffic information and services to increase road safety. COOPERS is based on convergent networks for bi-directional infrastructures - vehicle data transmission for implementing interconnected services along the travel route.
