In-vehicle systems that can guide you to
available parking slots in busy town centres, warn of danger ahead and
improve traffic flow are on the cusp of implementation. The Fully
Networked Car is the only event of its kind that brings together the ICT
and automotive industries to hasten the inclusion of ground-breaking
computer and communication technologies in tomorrow’s automobiles.
Held at one of the world’s most important
motor shows, the Fully Networked Car workshop provides a chance to hear
about the technology developments that will soon be reshaping our
driving experience. The two-day programme features compelling
presentations from experts and executives from the car industry, ICT
community, governments, research and development institutes, academia,
as well as a chance to chat with them about their vision and future
strategies.
A special executive session will feature high
level representatives from the US Department of Transportation, the
European Commission, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
(US), BMW, Orange and OKI. Other sessions will look at the latest
developments in technology and network requirements for electric
vehicles; vehicle and road safety; vehicle-to-vehicle,
vehicle-to-infrastructure, vehicle-to-home, vehicle-to-power-grid
technologies; ICTs and climate change, and in-vehicle technologies.
