IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Magazine. Special issue on 2017 IEEE International Conference on Vehicular Electronics and Safety (ICVES'17)\ [Guest Editorial]

Abstract

The seven articles in this special section were presented at the IEEE ICVES 2017 Conference that took place in Vienna, Austrial. These articles describe novel approaches in vehicular electronics and safety. During the last few years, significant attention has been paid to developing and implementing key technologies of future ITS by integrating vehicular electronics that enhance road safety and prevent traffic accidents. The fields of sensing, communication and control technologies increasingly play a crucial role for vehicle safety and security, while research in transport continues among industry engineers, practitioners, students and government agencies.
