I, Dr. Hrishikesh Venkataraman, from Indian Institute of Information Technology (IIIT) Sricity, along with co-chairs from IIT Madras and Sirab Technologies extend a warm welcome to New Delhi and to the First MobiCom Workshop on 'Communication and Computing for Connected Vehicles and Platooning'.
Over the last decade or so, there has been humongous progress towards adaptive driver assistance system - ADAS and particularly, towards autonomous driving. While a fully autonomous car system is still to happen commercially, significant advancements have been made in the world of connected vehicles. Connected vehicles imply vehicles that are not only connected to the Internet/ outside world but also that are connected to each other. The ability of vehicles to communicate both critical and non-critical information with its immediate neighbors provides each vehicle the platform for understanding its environment. Particularly, the connected cars would enable each vehicle to develop driver enhancement systems in order to improve/enhance its driving in terms of automatic lane change, taking turns, etc.
In addition, a significant aspect of connected cars that have taken lot of importance is the vehicle platooning. A platoon is a group of vehicles that can travel very closely together, safely, at high speed using connectivity technology and automated driving support systems. These vehicles automatically maintain a set, close distance between each other when they are connected for certain parts of a journey, for instance on motorway. There is a lead vehicle that controls the speed and direction, and all following vehicles respond to the lead vehicle's movement. A platooning system holds great potential to make road transport safer, cleaner and more efficient in the future. Also, it optimizes transport by using roads more effectively, delivering goods faster and reducing traffic jams. Though in the initial stages, each connected vehicle would have a driver at all times, but eventually driverless vehicles will be able to automatically join the other connected cars that may function like long trains of vehicles on a highway.
