Connected Vehicle (V2V)

Equip vehicles with smart devices measuring telematics data such as speed, acceleration and deceleration, slopes and curves. The Connected Vehicle (V2V) communicates insights (e.g. accident detection, hazardous roads, blind spot detection) to nearby connected vehicles, creating a safe network of drivers and providing supportive information for fast decision-making.

Key Benefits

Enhanced Surroundings Awareness

Drivers are kept informed in real-time of road conditions, potential blind spots, sharp turns or construction by communicating with cars around them.

Reduced Accidents

The equipped device can measure sharp reductions in speed due to road hazards and send immediate communication to cars behind warning the drivers of risks ahead.

Improved Traffic Management

The connected devices can act as sensors feeding data to a national traffic management platform generating insights and intelligence.
