Project Proposal

Please be aware that deadlines can change as calls near closure, and that this may not be shown below.

Our research group at University of Perugia in collaboration with University of Padova is seeking to join a consortium for the HORIZON-CL5-2026-01-D6-14 call on "Predicting and avoiding road crashes based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and big data."

We bring extensive expertise in the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs/drones) for high-resolution data acquisition and the development of advanced machine learning algorithms for image and sensor data analysis.

Our capabilities directly align with the call's objective to develop an AI-enabled digital twin of traffic and infrastructure. We can contribute by:
- Acquiring novel datasets of traffic flow, infrastructure conditions, and near-miss events using drones.
- Developing and training ML models to identify high-risk behaviors and pre-crash indicators from aerial imagery.
- Integrating drone-derived data with other sources (roadside sensors, vehicle data) to enhance the predictive accuracy of the digital twin.
