The IMARA project-team is a "horizontal" team at INRIA. Its objective is the coordination and the transfert of all the research done at INRIA which can be applied to the the concepts of "La Route Automatisée". In particular, we will develop and transfert the results of a number of INRIA projects in the following domains :
The goal of these studies is to improve road transportation in terms of safety, efficiency, comfort and also to minimize nuisances. The technical approach is basedon drivers aids, going all the way to full driving automation.
The project-team provides to the different teams cooperating with us, some important means such as a fleet of a dozen of computer driven vehicles, various sensors and advanced computing facilitites including simulation tool.
An experimental system based on fully automated vehicles has been installed on the INRIA grounds at Rocquencourt for demonstration purposes.
The IMARA project-team is part ot the consortium "La Route Automatisée" with the Ecole des Mines de Paris.
The project-team (and its partners in Lara) is strongly involved in numerous European projects on advanced drivers assistance systems and traffic management.
The project-team is also deeply involved in the development of the "cybercars", the urban vehicles of the (close) future which have totally automated driving capabilities. A cooperation is underway with the major players in the field such as Frog Navigation Systems (NL), Robosoft (F) and Yamaha Europe (NL) to develop and test this new generation of vehicles. INRIA is a major test site for these stransportation systems with an operational system in Rocquencourt.
Active colaboration is also under way with several of the best research organisations in the field abroad : University of California at Berkeley, Jia Tong University (Shanghai), Nayang Technical University (Singapor), Coimbra University (Portugal), Technion (Israel), Riken Institute (Japan), ...
