The 324 US Department of Transportation (USDOT) has launched a series of connected vehicle plugfests to conduct vendor-to-vendor connected vehicle device testing. These test sessions help to ensure that devices meet the base standard requirements and level of interoperability necessary for the Southeast Michigan Connected Vehicle Test Bed Deployment 2014 Project.
The first plugfest will be held at Turner Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia on 29-30 January 29-30. Additional PlugFests will be scheduled throughout the year and across the country. Each event will feature two tracks: a classroom training track and a laboratory testing track.
Each plugfest is open to all interested connected vehicle research parties; however, only those organisations who have read the Affiliated Test Bed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) and the Amendment to the Affiliated Test Bed MOA will be able to participate in the testing track.
Pre-register for the first plugfest at http://www.itsa.org/plugfest. Participants interested in device testing will be required to complete a short pre-screening questionnaire.
