- What is it?
- V2X stands for Vehicle-to-Infrustructure communication is the wireless data exchange between vehicles
- and everything around which is for example road infrastructure ( V2I), pedestrians who have their phones (V2P),
- environment or other vehicles (V2V).
- How does it work?
- V2X communication technology is a wireless exchange of data between vehicle and road infrastructure.
- This communication works in both directions - sensors placed in cars exchange informations with sensors
- placed on the elements of road infrastructure and conversely. Elements that belong to the road
- infrastructure are for example parking meters, overhead readers and RFID cameras (ang. Radio-Frequency Identification),
- road signs, traffic lights, street lamps and lane markers. V2X sensors collect data sent from different elements
- of road infrastructure and then hand them over to drivers. Thanks to this operation drivers can get information
- about their surroundings in present time.
- Why do we need it?
- There are many research that proves that V2X applications can increase the level of safety, mobility and minimalize
- the impact of cars on the environment.
- Thanks to V2X the drivers will be notified about things such:
- traffic jams, construction zones or approaching emergency vehicle - Mobility - travel time reduction
- road conditions, upcoming pedestrian coming, speed limit - Safety - reduce the number of fatalities
- phase of the trafic light - environment conservation - saving fuel and reduction of the number of kilometers traveled-
- Future
- Thanks to the V2X technology in the future we will be able to have inteligent cars, which will contibute to increase of safety,
- improve flow of traffic and lessen the impact of vehicles on the environment. Also there will be cars that won't need drivers,
- so the possibility of taxis and trucks without them may soon be fullfilled.
