Connected Infrastructure Lab

Connected and advanced infrastructure is a major evolution in how vehicles and infrastructure will interact in the future, affecting every facet of transportation safety and mobility as well as studies on high-speed rail infrastructure including austere (space and cold region) environments. The Lab is a fully equipped, collaborative workspace where different disciplines can work together to develop, test and deploy next generation sensors, lab equipment and data applications for the connected infrastructure, as well as fields in the austere infrastructure arena. This facility is a living laboratory for undergraduate and graduate students as they develop expertise in connected transportation and grow into industry leaders in the emerging disciplines. Topics related to infrastructure in austere environments, including arctic and extreme cold regions as well as high speed rail infrastructure research, are being studied in this lab.
