Testing the Readiness of Slovak Road Infrastructure for the Deployment of Intelligent Transportation

In the recent years, we observe huge effort to develop new technologies for modern road vehicles in order to improve the level of safety for all passengers in the vehicle. Many of these systems are sooner or later becoming mandatory for the vehicles to be allowed to drive on the European roads. These are for example Lane Keeping Assistants (LKA) or Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA). Although there is huge effort on development and continuous improvement of these systems in the new vehicles, much less effort is put into the analysis of the infrastructure itself in the terms of its readiness for being used by these technologies. This study, in cooperation with the government authorities set as a goal an evaluation of sensoric readability of the horizontal and vertical road signs on the Slovak road infrastructure together with a public dataset to be released after the study will be completely done.
