5500 ITS Romania will host on its stand a live eCall demonstrator that will present the eCall system implemented at national level during the Harmonised eCall European pilot project.

eCall enables a vehicle to automatically dial Europe’s 112 emergency phone number in case of a severe accident, while sending a Minimum Set of Data to the most appropriate Public Service Answering Point (PSAP).

The Romanian eCall live demonstrator will show how an eCall is being handled by the 112 PSAP. This will be done by setting up a workstation in Vienna that will be able to answer eCalls generated in Romania.
The workflow for handling an eCall during the live demonstrator will be the same as in real life, the only difference being that the operator’s workstation will be located in Vienna.
