TRACE and eIMPACT conference in Paris

Creation date: 12 June 2008

TRACE’s main objective is to identify and assess the most promising solutions that can assist the driver or any other road users in a normal or in an emergency road situation. TRACE also has a crucial role to play in determining and updating the aetiology, i.e, causes of road accidents and to assess, from there, how the existing technologies and technologies to be developed can prevent them.

eIMPACT evaluates the impact of stand-alone and co-operative intelligent vehicle safety systems IVSS and to providing perspectives regarding how to introduce these systems on the market.

The conference will enlighten the attendees on the following questions:
•        Insights into injury accident causation
•        How have the safety benefits of IVSS (Intelligent Vehicle Safety Systems)    been assessed?
•        How has the cost-benefit analysis of IVSS been performed?
•        What are the results of the assessments?
•        What are the options and challenges in the deployment of IVSS?
