AutopleX trials motorway merging with connected roadside infrastructure

As part of the Autonomous Cars Negotiating Complex Environments Using V2X (AutopleX) project consortium, researchers at the University of Warwick (WMG) have used connected smart roadside infrastructure and onboard vehicle systems to demonstrate how to improve the vision and perception of future autonomous vehicles.

The project is expected to help achieve safer and more comfortable maneuvers along high-speed junctions, such as motorway merges. AutopleX brought together WMG and automotive and mobility management partners Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) and Yunex Traffic, as well as public bodies such as Transport for West Midlands (TfWM) and National Highways.
