| Abstract | The USDOT is one of the biggest sources of funding for intelligent transportation system (ITS) research and development nationwide. We have invested over $100 million per year to spur technology innovation and accelerate technology deployment. Our vision is to bring connectivity to transportation through the use of advanced wireless technologies. We are working to connect our vehicles, connect our infrastructure, and connect our cities—leveraging technology to maximize the safety, mobility, and environmental sustainability of our transportation network. Thus, we have become a global leader in large-scale connected vehicle pilot deployments, which is helping to make talking cars a reality for everyone. And our plans don’t end there. Over the next 5 years, our priorities will focus on connected vehicles, automation, enterprise data, emerging technology, interoperability, and deployment. The USDOT’s research is critical to developing innovative solutions to transportation’s toughest challenges—and to ensuring seamless technology deployment. |
