ANN ARBOR, MI
Toyota’s Collaborative Safety Research Center (CSRC) announced today the completion of its 100th research project, a collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) AgeLab. The project characterized non-driving related tasks during highway driving, with and without driver assistance technologies. At a media event today in Michigan, the teams presented some of their discoveries and detailed the long-time research engagement between the two organizations. These also included CSRC and MIT AgeLab analysis of communication between vehicle drivers and pedestrians, which can help avoid potential collisions.
To celebrate this achievement, CSRC and Toyota Motor North America R&D hosted a briefing event at the Toyota Garage at the American Center for Mobility. CSRC’s Dr. Josh Domeyer presented alongside special guest Dr. Bryan Reimer, founder and Co-Director of MIT’s Advanced Vehicle Technologies Consortium. Together they shared several insights from more than a decade of collaboration between CSRC and MIT AgeLab.
MIT AgeLab has been a CSRC collaborator since CSRC’s first year in 2011.
