The positioning of users using their smartphones represents interesting service for various areas. Position of users can represent valuable information for various service providers. In industry 4.0 smart devices such as smartphone or…
We investigate sensing-assisted predictive beamforming schemes for vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication by exploiting the integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) functionalities at the roadside unit (RSU). The RSU deploys a…
In recent years, Cellular-Vehicle-to-Everything (CV2X) has been an emerging area of interest attracting both the industry and academy societies to develop, which is also a prominent emerging service for the next generation of the cellular…
In this work, we showcase the potential benefit of employing optical intelligent reflecting surfaces (O-IRS) for improving safety message dissemination for vehicular visible light communication (V-VLC) systems particularly at the road…
Highway work zones are critical areas where accidents frequently occur, often due to the proximity of workers to heavy machinery and ongoing traffic. With technological advancements in sensor technologies and the Internet of Things,…
Efficient and dynamic path planning has become an important topic for urban areas with larger density of connected vehicles (CV) which results in reduction of travel time and directly contributes to environmental sustainability through…
Ensuring safety levels on roads is an imperative task for road authorities. Significant amounts of time and money are spent on performing road inspections every year. In order to ensure efficiency of road inventories, road practitioners are…
Poor road conditions are a public nuisance, causing passenger discomfort, damage to vehicles, and accidents. In the U.S., road-related conditions are a factor in 22,000 of the 42,000 traffic fatalities each year. Although we often complain…
The use of mobiles phones when driving have been a major factor when it comes to road traffic incidents and the process of capturing such violations can be a laborious task. Advancements in both modern object detection frameworks and…
Autonomous vehicles (AV) are becoming a part of humans' everyday life. There are numerous pilot projects of driverless public buses; some car manufacturers deliver their premium-level automobiles with advanced self-driving features. Thus,…
This is a no brainer. Using bicycles to commute is the most sustainable form of transport, is the least expensive to use and are pollution-free. Towns and cities have to be made bicycle-friendly to encourage their wide usage. Therefore,…
Assessing collision risk is a critical challenge to effective traffic safety management. The deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to address this issue has shown much promise, given their wide visual field and movement flexibility.…
Micromobility is a growing mode of transportation, raising new challenges for traffic safety and planning due to increased interactions in areas where vulnerable road users (VRUs) share the infrastructure with micromobility, including…
In vehicle-to-everything (V2X) applications, roadside units (RSUs) can be tasked with both sensing and communication functions to enable sensing-assisted communications. Recent studies have demonstrated that distance, angle, and velocity…
In this work, we address a fundamental and critical task of detecting the behavior of driving and texting using smartphones carried by users. We propose, design, and implement TEXIVE that leverages various sensors integrated in the…
The wide spread of mobiles as handheld devices leads to various innovative applications that makes use of their ever increasing presence in our daily life. One such application is location tracking and monitoring. This paper proposes a…
Traffic-related injuries and fatalities are major health risks in the United States. Mobile phone use while driving quadruples the risk for a motor vehicle crash. This work demonstrates the feasibility of using the mobile phone camera to…
Vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication enables vehicles, roadside vulnerable users, and infrastructure facilities to communicate in an ad-hoc fashion. Cellular V2X (C-V2X), which was introduced in the 3rd generation partnership project…
Walking while using a smartphone is becoming a major pedestrian safety concern as people may unknowingly bump into various obstacles that could lead to severe injuries. In this paper, we propose ObstacleWatch, an acoustic-based obstacle…
Mobile robotic systems are increasingly used in various work environments to support productivity. However, deploying robots in workplaces crowded by human workers and interacting with them results in safety challenges and concerns, namely…
