One2many

Important results from the project

The "One2Many" project has aimed to identify how non-technical aspects, e.g. regarding regulations and work environment, need to be developed to enable a single person to remotely control several vehicles at the same time. The project shows that the implementation of remote control of several vehicles requires further development of regulations and laws, as well as for working conditions, organisations and business models. One2Many provides recommendations research that is essential for accelerated remote control of multiple vehicles. The project objectives have been met.

Expected long term effects

Recommendations and conclusions: * A Memorandum summarising regulatory considerations. * Research needs regarding -legal challenges for the 3 different remote operation modes (driving/assistance/supervision) and how future regulation can best handle safety concerns - liability issues - working environment, including type of controls for safe operation * Uptime is a foreseen main advantage of remote operating with several vehicles, personnel costs are expected to decrease. Studies are needed, and must include surrounding functions * A VTI report summarising work and results

Approach and implementation

- establishment of taxonomy - state-of-the-art (study of literature and initiatives, international remote control workshop (organizer)) - Comprehensive study of legal and regulatory aspects (desktop), international conference (presentation) - meeting at Einride´s test site at AstaZero - interviews with Ride the futures´ security operators - workshop with OEM (commercial vehicles) and operators: discussion on remote operation of single and multiple vehicles; plans, business models, work environment and organisational aspects. - project meetings and analysis.
