A multidimensional project, shortlisted for the 2012 Designs of the Year Awards, Autolib' rests upon the smart inter-connectivity of its building blocks: the web front ends, the subscription portal, the CRM, the call centre, the geographic information system and the complete backoffice suite.

  • NXP will show a next-generation traffic management system based on its ATOP telematics solution (automotive telematics on-board unit platform). The on-board unit contains a GPS receiver that wirelessly collects, with optimal privacy, real time traffic data and feeds it via mobile data link to a back office. This allows service centres to calculate the fastest and most cost-effective route or advise drivers to choose the best means of transport. Currently tested in Singapore, such comprehensive mobility concepts provide a cost-efficient solution that will allow people in smart cities to optimally use and combine all means of transport - including public transport, taxi, individual transport means and car sharing.
