Aimsun software in app to promote clean air routes for exercise August 3rd 2018 A new app being developed by air quality monitoring specialist EarthSense will allow users to find the least polluted routes when walking, running or cycling. Funded by the European Space Agency (ESA) Kickstarter grant programme, project CARAMEL (Clean Air Routing and Mobile Exposure Limitation) the app identifies and maps the cleanest air routes, as well as reporting on weekly pollution levels. When combined with re [...]

VeriCAV: UK Government announces project to test Connected and Autonomous Vehicles July 30th 2018 A new connected and autonomous vehicles (CAV) project has been announced by the UK government today that will help to explore how simulated environments can support the development of self-driving technology. The VeriCAV (Verification of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles) project will develop an integrated platform to allow Automated Driving Systems (ADS) to be tested in simulation. As CAV technolog [...]
