The second day of the IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium 2010 started with a keynote speech by Ray Resendes from NHTSA. Ray gave an overview of the process of the regulatory process in the automotive domain and specifically mentioned current activities that will lead up to a decision on regulation of V2X systems in 2013. With an estimated 5 year phase-in period for manufacturers after a regulatory decision this could mean that 2020 is a realistic point in time for widespread roll-out of cooperative systems.
The keynote speech also touched on the infrastructure-based (e.g. LTE) vs. infrastructure-less (e.g. DSRC) discussion and limitations in latency of current cellular systems were cited in support for the use of DSRC-type technologies. However, it was also stated that a DSRC deployment must not depend on a widespread use of road-side unit infrastructure because of the costs associated with deploying the amount of such nodes that would be needed.
The rest of the day, presentation sessions as well as poster sessions, were highly perception-oriented with several presentations on various uses of stereo- and monocular imaging for intelligent vehicles.
