Safety and Health Impacts of Mobility Alternatives Technology Transfer

Conveying new concepts and research results to the general public and professionals can help positively transform our practice and generally our future. This project will center its efforts on extending the technology transfer initiatives from three previously concluded Center for Connected Multimodal Mobility (C2M2) projects. These projects include the exploration of potential reductions in fatal crashes in South Carolina attributed to Automated Vehicles, the assessment of the potential of Bike Share Networks and Active Transportation to enhance urban mobility and public health outcomes, and the development of a Cloud-based Quantum Artificial Intelligence-supported Automated Truck Platooning Strategy aimed at reducing energy consumption and improving mobility. The ongoing technology transfer endeavors will be broadened, with the outcomes disseminated in national and international forums, as well as within academic circles. This dissemination aims to share valuable insights and findings derived from the completed research projects, fostering broader understanding and application in relevant fields.
