Research

Cosmo’s research  supports the development of AI-based vehicle technologies,  autonomous traffic infrastructures, and advanced urban mobility apps

COSMO focuses on the research and development of methods, techniques, tools, software, and hardware for smart mobility. Each research project develops , evaluates, and deploys real-world solutions within a three-year time frame. This approach is aimed at encouraging technology transfer and commercialization of research products. The center engages large groups of graduate and undergraduate computer science and engineering students in research, development, and data collection activities.

COSMO’s research evolves around three main topics: VEHICLE TECHNOLOGIES, TRAFFIC INFRASTRUCTURES, and URBAN MOBILITY APPS
VEHICLE TECHNOLOGIES, TRAFFIC INFRASTRUCTURES, and URBAN MOBILITY APPS

Projects in each category can be easily integrated to provide unified solutions for road safety, congestion and emission reduction, and enhanced transport justice.
