Connected Transportation

TTI, partnering with the Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station and operating under contract to Texas A&M University, is helping develop a smarter campus transportation ecosystem at Texas A&M, increasing safety, mobility, throughput, and efficiency across all modes of transportation in the campus environment. The primary goal of this initiative is to encourage anyone who has […]

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 […]

TTI has developed an augmented-reality environment where real entities (vehicles and traffic signal operation) are combined with simulated traffic and displayed on a screen. The first-of-its-kind approach — called CONnected Vehicle Assessment Simulation (CONVAS) — marries the cost-effectiveness of computer simulation with actual roadway operations to produce an efficient yet dependable evaluation mechanism for the […]

TTI is deploying CV technology along the I-35 corridor to improve safety and mobility through work zones by providing in-vehicle devices to freight companies to receive work zone infrastructure data on lane closure location, capacity reduction, queue lengths and delay to assist in pre-trip and en-route planning for logistics.

More than… 50 years of safety research. 4,000 full-scale crash tests. 40 tons of truck brought to a screeching halt. Research performed at the Texas A&M Transportation Institute’s Proving Ground has saved lives for more than 50 years. The TTI Proving Grounds has long been a place where TTI has conducted world-class research, technology development […]

TTI developed a concept of operations plan for designing, testing, piloting, demonstrating and deploying CAV technology hardware and applications to reduce and eliminate crashes involving transit, bicyclists and pedestrians. A pilot test was also conducted of the Mobileye Shield + collision avoidance system on a Texas A&M University bus in Phase I of the project. […]
