iDriving supports road users, road managers and agencies of urban and secondary roads with beyond state-of-the-art monitoring, prediction and warning capabilities - helping Europe meet its road safety goals.
iDriving focuses on enhancing road safety through intelligent, data-driven solutions for urban and secondary roads across Europe. Leveraging AI, digital twins, and real-time monitoring, the project delivers comprehensive safety and traffic management - detecting hazards, optimising maintenance, and enabling efficient vehicle-to-infrastructure communication.
The work is anchored in a Safety Criteria Catalogue, V2I communications, AI-powered edge analytics, predictive maintenance, and open science.
Read the full mission →The first periodic report (D1.5) was submitted on 23 December 2025. Foundational architecture, data governance, AI components and the first iDriving prototype are all in place, with strong cross-WP collaboration and pilots already running.
Each iDriving use case unfolds across two scenarios at six unique pilot sites - generating real-world evidence that infrastructure intelligence makes urban and secondary roads safer.
Enhanced logging & user-interaction monitoring at a busy urban testbed - real-time hazard and violation detection. YOLOv11 models trained on 4,000-image dataset, mAP ~87%, OCR licence-plate recognition integrated.
User-interaction monitoring on shared urban roads - cyclist hand-signal classification, illegal parking detection, traffic-light obstruction. SUMO models calibrated with real Nevers traffic data.
Infrastructure maintenance & defect detection on secondary roads - FMEA framework refined, historical and contextual data aligned with local police and the Municipality of Karlovac.
Hazard monitoring in a major urban network - WRF/WRFDA weather pipelines deployed, environmental hazard scenes (rockslide, fallen trees) defined, dataset annotation underway.
Real-time incident detection on secondary roads - speeding, impaired driving, risky overtaking and rapid response. Initial accident-scene dataset assembled; trial activates late 2026.
Real-time incident response in a smart-city pilot - testing alerts, dispatch and intelligent traffic management. C-ITS Mobile Lab will validate V2X message exchanges.
Three use cases comprise six distinct scenarios that comprehensively evaluate iDriving's technological capabilities across pilots in six countries.
