Breakout Group Title: Future Challenges for Automated Trucks
Breakout Group Title: Future Challenges for Automated Trucks Summary of Meeting Agenda: • EU Truck Platooning Challenge • Truck Automation - Policy Options and Labor Market Effects • Cooperative Automation Panel • Full Automation and Architecture Aspects Superb Group! • shippers • technology developers: truck OEMs, truck automation startups • federal government: USDOT (FHWA, FMCSA, Volpe), USDOD(Army) • states government (Florida) • analysts, researchers
Breakout Group Title: Future Challenges for Automated Trucks Summary of Key Findings/Lessons Learned from Breakout Discussion: • EU Truck Platooning Challenge: should we / could we do this in USA? •
possible outcomes: policy guide, deployment guide, operational guide
• Examine traffic inter-actions via “learn by doing” (Dutch example) • Cooperative Truck Automation: • • •
V2V key for platooning V2I plays a key role in supporting urban operations (freight signal priority) Standards key for platooning: inter-brand & inter-fleet
• Independent Truck Automation •
truck drayage operations at intermodal centers could be first deployments
• Driverless? • •
Top priority for military Shippers see this as very long term, if at all
• Verification and validation: it’s hard! •
Collaboration across industry important.
Breakout Group Title: Future Challenges for Automated Trucks Recommended Action Items: • Opportunities for collaboration between • private sector and military • commercial trucks and passenger cars
• Examine HMI aspects of evolving driver role • Explore near-term high-automation deployments • Continued focus on inter-operability of cooperative systems
