Description
This funding opportunity from the European Commission under Horizon Europe supports research and innovation projects leveraging Generative AI (GenAI) to enhance perception, decision-making, and validation in Connected, Cooperative and Automated Mobility (CCAM). The focus is on developing ultra-safe, real-time, and scalable AI-driven systems for automated vehicles, especially in complex urban environments. Projects should address robust environment perception, scenario generation for validation/testing, and integration of GenAI into current mobility technology frameworks. Emphasis is placed on safety, energy efficiency, security, privacy, and fairness. Collaboration with initiatives like the European Software-defined Vehicle (SDV) and the European Connected and Autonomous Vehicle Alliance (ECAVA) is encouraged.
