Deployment of cooperative systems has been less rapid than of autonomous systems. But certainly they are a prelude and an indispensable component of an advanced technology, which has come to rapid development in recent years, and is receiving widespread attention. This presentation presents recent results of the development and deployment of cooperative systems for road transport. These systems use communication between vehicles, as well as between vehicles and infrastructure, other road users and network, for exchange of information, enabling various applications for safety, efficiency and comfort. Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS), also referred to as connected vehicles, are a prelude to, and pave the way towards road transport automation. Vehicle connectivity and information exchange will be an important asset for future highly-automated driving The presentation provides an insight in the state of the art of C-ITS, especially addresses the important role of ICT infrastructure, and presents the main R&D achievements in recent European projects, EU R&D funding scheme and international cooperation, as well as related standardisation activities.
