IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium

National Institute of Informatics, Tokyo, Japan

May 14-17, 2001

The IEEE Intelligent Transportation System Council (ITSC) is sponsoring a professional-level conference on basic research and present and future applications for Intelligent Vehicles and Intelligent Infrastructures. Papers dealing with vehicle-related intelligent systems are solicited. This symposium is characterized by a single session format so that all the attendees remain in a single room for multilateral communications in an informal atmosphere. As another tradition, the meetings have enthusiastic participation from industry, as well as research centers and universities.

TOPICS

Driver Assistance Systems
System Architectures
Sensors
Navigation/Guidance Systems
Imaging and Vision Enhancement
Vehicle Control
Information Systems
Human-machine Interfaces
Active Safety
Traffic Monitoring and Control
Communications and Networks

Extended abstract must be no longer than one (1) page (A4 or letter size) including figures. The cover page should include (1) the title of the paper, (2) the names of the authors, (3) the name, mailing address, telephone and fax number, and e-mail address of the contact author.

TUTORIAL and DEMO

Tutorial sessions on DEMO 2000 are going to be held on May 14 (Mon). DEMO 2000 is a kind of big experiment on AHS in Japan; it is held November-December 2000. There will be a lot of intelligent sensors, vehicles, communication systems and infrastructures in DEMO 2000, hence its results is expected to include interesting suggestion for Intelligent Transportation Systems.

DEMO 2000 Technical tour is going to be held on May 17 (Thu). Participants to the tour can experience intelligent vehicles of DEMO 2000 after the conference.
