Cyber-physical systems have technologically advanced the transportation industry with their ability to connect physical systems with virtual functions. A cyber-physical system uses real-time data generation and communication technologies to make transportation systems safer, more efficient, more sustainable and more reliable. Connected cars are one of the primary use cases of CPS in transportation. They utilize sensors, cameras, and internet connectivity to capture information regarding road conditions, traffic patterns, and other drivers on the road. This information is then communicated to the backend system for analysis and decision-making to enhance safety or alleviate traffic congestion. It has also contributed towards developing independent vehicles. They employ ACH and CPS technologies to drive on roads driving without the need for human intervention. This could lead to a huge reduction in human error-related accidents and improve the efficiency of transportation. CPS also helps build smart transportation systems or link multiple modes of transport to escape congestion and reduce travel time. For example, it involves the integration of different modes of transportation, such as public transit, ride-sharing services and self-driving cars, to minimize travel time while maximizing usage. CPS has revolutionized the transport sector into a more connected, effective and secures system.
