Pioneering Driverless Electric Vehicles in Europe: the City Automated Transport System (CATS)
Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Transportation Research Procedia 13 ( 2016 ) 30 – 39 European Transport Conference 2015 – from Sept-28 to Sept-30, 2015 Pioneering driverless electric vehicles in Europe: the City Automated Transport System (CATS) Derek Christiea,*, Anne Koymansb,c, Thierry Chanardc, Jean-Marc Lasgouttesd, a Vincent Kaufmann aLaboratory of urban sociology, Ecole polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Lausanne, Switzerland bBestMile, EPFL Innovation Park, Lausanne, Switzerland cGEA Architectes urbanistes, Lausanne, Switzerland dINRIA, Roquencourt, 78153 Le Chesnay, France Abstract The City Automated Transport System (CATS) was a collaborative FP7 European project that lasted from 2010 to 2014. Its objective was to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of driverless electric vehicles in European cities. This contribution explains how the project was implemented by 11 teams in five countries, culminating with practical trials of driverless vehicles in Strasbourg, France; Ploiesti, Romania; and Lausanne, Switzerland. The Navya vehicles used were able to transport up to eight passengers, in an open vehicle where passengers could recline against lumbar support cushions. After extensive road testing in Strasbourg, the final demonstration took place at the EPFL campus in Lausanne, where around 1600 people were transported safely during 16 days of vehicle operation. Three vehicles were used, a fourth remaining on campus as a back-up. Although no driver was present, a student was available on board of each vehicle to respond to questions from the passengers and to handle the three points on the 1.8 km route where there was insufficient leeway for two vehicles to pass each other. Passenger reactions to the driverless vehicle concept were collected by questionnaire and were overwhelmingly positive.

In the last twenty years historiography has consistently progressed on the cultural and social dimensions and consequences of Western medicine in colonial Africa, Asia and in Latin America (imperial medicine). The aim of our conference is to consolidate existing critical analyses of the emergence of global medicine and explore new research avenues. To do so we will gather scholars of economic and business history, global history, history of medicine, history of public and international health and study a wide variety of countries and regions.

EPFL Annual Report 2015
PANORAMA 015 ANNUAL REPORT PANORAMA 2015 ANNUAL REPORT CONTENTS 5 EDITORIAL TEACHING 6 14 RESEARCH 38 TECH TRANSFER OUTLOOK 48 58 PERSONALIA 66 EPFL IN FIGURES 2 April 2015: the preliminary framework agreement on Iran’s nuclear program was unveiled on the EPFL campus. P ATRICK AEBISCHER PRESIDENT In this year’s Annual Report, you will discover how Switzerland’s technology schools have an impact well beyond the academic realm. In recent years, they have even become a point of pride for the entire country. Switzerland’s position as one of the leading coun- tries for technology and research is increasingly recognized within our own borders. But there is nevertheless some truth to the saying “No man is a prophet in his own land” – our reputation is largely being built outside our borders, where people admire and envy the Swiss education, research and innovation ecosystem. When French President François Hollande visited Switzerland in 2015, he decided to make a stop at EPFL. This gave the French delegation the opportunity to forge new ties with our start-ups, for the benefit of both countries. And when the European Union, Iran and the United States were preparing to announce the outcome of their nuclear talks, they ITORIAL chose EPFL’s campus to hold the press conference that would be broadcast live around ED the world. 7 The growing prominence of Swiss universities reflects the recognized excellence of our academic institutions. Switzerland has the highest number of patents, Nobel prizes and scientific publications on a per capita basis of any country in the world.
