Visiongain’s report, Automotive Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) Communications Market 2014-2024, looks at vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications, which encapsulate it says a truly connected vehicle - able to communicate with other vehicles, traffic lights, toll gates, pedestrians, and even the owner's home - the automotive sector's answer to safe, clean and ultimately autonomous/self-driving vehicles.

According to the report, in 2014, the V2X market is still in its infancy, comprising only vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications technologies; the former dominated by aftermarket vendors and the latter by electronic toll collection and electronic payment applications respectively. However, the expected V2V mandate by the NHTSA in the US will release the huge potential of the market as the new requirements for the installation of DSRC modules in new vehicles will be the first step towards wider V2V adoption.

The strong regulatory support, coupled with the introduction of OEM car-to-X technologies will increase the penetration of V2V enabling first a higher V2I penetration in new vehicles and second the vehicle-to-pedestrians (V2P) and vehicle-to-home (V2H) communications submarkets to materialise from 2016 onwards. Towards the end of the forecast, the integration of V2V, V2I, sensors and ADAS will make autonomous driving a reality.

    If you want to get up to speed on the main issues facing the transport sector and tolling companies, ASECAP Study Days event in Ljubljana was a good place to start. Colin Sowman reports (Photographs: Louis David). Increasing populations, ever-higher technical and safety requirements, and electric and hybrid vehicles will provide both challenges and opportunities for tolling companies. The annual Study Days event organised by ASECAP (the European association for tolling companies) examined all of these aspec

    A new report by Juniper Research on the telematics sector has found that the number of in-vehicle apps in use is expected to reach 269 million by 2018, representing a more than fivefold increase on 2013’s figure. According to the report, Connected Cars: Consumer & Commercial Telematics and Infotainment 2014-2018, growth will be fuelled by solutions such as Apple’s CarPlay, which will promote in-vehicle apps to the mainstream. It also argues that app integration will be facilitated as standardised approac

    Satellite-based tolling opens up new options for authorities and can be integrated with DSRC systems as David Crawford discovers. As the proud custodian of the European Union (EU)’s longest road network covered by a single (truck) charging scheme – and the only one to include all major roads - Slovakia has become the continent’s poster-nation for the virtues of GNSS/CN (Global Navigation Satellite System/Cellular Network)-based tolling. It is also proved to be a very fast implementer. Speaking at the 2014 I
