About

EVENTS is a Horizon Europe project that brings together a complementary consortium of 11 partners from 7 EU countries and UK, with the view to deal with complex situations, where the normal operation of the Connected and Automated Vehicle (CAV) is close to be disrupted (e.g., due to dynamic traffic changes, harsh weather/light conditions, unstructured road, imperfect data, sensor/communication failures, etc.).The project is the process of creating a robust and resilient perception and decision-making system, able to tackle such challenges. In EVENTS, in case the system or some of the subsystems cannot perform with the expected quality and reliability, an improved minimum risk manoeuvre is triggered.Within the scope of the project, the various types of “events” are clustered under three main use cases: Interaction with VRUs in Complex Urban Environment; Non-Standard and Unstructured Road Conditions; Low Visibility and Adverse Weather Conditions;To achieve its objectives, EVENTS is introducing a number of breakthroughs, such as: i) the robust and reliable perception of objects, and especially VRUs, under complex urban traffic and bad weather or low visibility conditions, ii) the improved perception performance, while using cost-efficient sensor suites and iii) the real-time decision-making for CAVs under non-standard traffic and unstructured road conditions.
