Roadside Infrastructure Testfield Aachen (RITA)

Our RITA test field comprises two platforms: one for stationary (sRISU) and one for mobile (mRISU) roadside infrastructure sensing. The stationary infrastructure units are located at Campus Melaten, while the mobile units can be deployed at relevant sites as needed.

Stationary Roadside Infrastructure Station Unit (sRISU)

sRISU is a stationary roadside infrastructure platform that allows to collect and process traffic data to develop and validate algorithms for automated and connected mobility.
