With 86% of collisions in the UK having “Human Error” as a contributory factor, Connected and Automated Mobility technologies have the potential to transform road safety by saving lives and minimising road collisions.
However, with any sophisticated and connected technology that is controlled by an automated system, the need for cyber resilience is required to ensure that CAM is not used for harm, but also to build public confidence when using these technologies and services.
Over the last few years, Zenzic has commissioned several projects looking in to how to use CAM technologies safely and securely – helping to ensure that insights gathered support the safety development and use of CAM. Projects includes a look at best practice when it comes to safety cases creation, cyber resilience and research into a consumer rating scheme to help users better understand the technologies as they are deployed.
The Cyber Resilience project developed a proof-of-concept on how connected and automated vehicles detects, understands, and reports emerging cyber threats in real time, and was in partnership with Thales and CAM Testbed UK partners.
The UK are leading the development of future independent consumer safety rating and framework. The project was the world’s first rating to support the safe introduction, adoption and use of Automated Driving Systems on UK roads – beginning with Automated Lane Keeping Systems.
The Safety Case Framework: Guidance Edition provides direction for the safe testing and trialing of Connected and Automated Mobility (CAM) in the UK. Authored by HORIBA MIRA, TRL and WMG, and compiled by Zenzic, it aims to help trialling organisations and reviewers save time and money, with a unified approach to safety case development.
