5500 ITS Romania’s stand will host a live demonstration presenting the eCall system now operational in Romania under the HeERO project.

The eCall service enables a car to automatically dial the European 112 emergency phone number if it is involved in a serious accident, while sending data to the most appropriate public service answering point.

The eCall demonstrator will show how emergency calls are handled, by setting up a workstation in Vienna that will be able to answer eCalls generated in Romania.

The demonstration will also demonstrate two interfaces – one with EUCARIS, which decodes the Vehicle Identification Number, and one with the Traffic Management Centre, which sends the details of the accident to the road operator.
