Important results from the project
The project has achieved the objectives that were set: - Contribute to Vision Zero through active safety systems that reduce the number of accidents with cyclists Done by the launched product containing project results. - Increase knowledge of cyclists´ braking capabilities - VTI´s study. - Explore protection for cyclists beyond EU-NCAP 2018 Demonstrated in the project & through concepts that could further improve. - Increasing Swedish innovation power & collaboration between industry & academia The project has established contacts, generated ideas & new possible research topics
Expected long term effects
The launched product is expected to have an effect on a reduced number of accidents with cyclists. The research results are expected to lead to increased knowledge about how difficult accident scenarios can be addressed and how they could be solved technically.
Approach and implementation
The project was not carried out as planned due to organizational changes. Zenuity was formed as an JV between Autoliv and Volvo Cars which involved one work package. Zenuity joined the project at a later stage in the project. Then Veoneer was created as a spin-off from Autoliv, containing the part with active safety products. This lead to that Veoneer took on the coordinator role after the split.
