A cooperation agreement that combines TASS International’s automotive expertise and CETECOM’s telecommunications know-how will enable the two companies to offer solutions for the connected car market.

TASS International offers simulation solutions for virtual development and verification of connected and cooperative technologies on a functional level, as well as worldwide accredited labs and test sites for evaluation, validation and homologation of components, for complete vehicles as well as cooperative systems. CETECOM’s focus within the partnership is on certification, conformity assessment and type approval services for communication technologies.

“There is an increasing need to test and validate cooperative and connected systems and services that are close to deployment in Europe, North America and Asia”, says Jan van den Oetelaar, managing director of TASS International. “The combination of TASS International and CETECOM facilities and expertise offers the capabilities, know-how and experience to successfully perform these tests on both functional and communication levels, thus guaranteeing the performance and robustness of these systems”.

“We are really looking forward to align our expertise in this field”, adds Wilfried Klassmann, CEO of CETECOM Group. “The technology and its guaranteed functionality is the main driver for connected driving to change road traffic as we know it today.”

    The German AKTIV project is researching several cooperative driving applications for use in work zones. PTV's Michael Ortgiese details progress. The steep increases in traffic volumes predicted back in the early 1990s have unfortunately been proven to be more than accurate. In Germany, the AKTIV project continues to look into cooperative technologies' potential to reduce the impact of those increased traffic volumes and keep traffic moving despite limitations in infrastructure capacity.
