Environmental Innovation Programme (UIP)

This call aims to increase understanding of the synergies between drivers and driving assistance systems to improve road safety. Projects should develop tailored, self-learning Human-Technology Interaction (HTI) strategies to prevent crashes related to mode confusion during the use of driver assistance systems, hand-over, and take-over phases. Objectives include developing advanced standardizable assessment tools and methods for improved HTI, creating training methods for new and experienced drivers, and addressing the needs of specific populations such as elderly drivers and professional drivers.

Opening Date: 06 May 2025
Deadline: 04 September 2025

This funding opportunity represents a pre-agreed draft that has not yet been officially approved by the European Commission. The final, approved version is expected to be published in the first quarter of 2025. This draft is provided for informational purposes and may be used to preliminarily form consortia and develop project ideas, but it is offered without any guarantees or warranties.

Expected Outcome

Projects are expected to increase understanding of driver and assistance system synergies, avoid crashes related to mode confusion, develop advanced assessment tools for HTI, create training methods for evolving technologies, and build trust in HTI systems through transparency and reliability.

Scope

The call focuses on developing strategies to improve the interface between drivers and vehicle systems, particularly in lower levels of automation. Proposals should address challenges in hand-over and take-over phases, prevent driver disengagement, and minimize cognitive load during critical situations. The development of adaptive HTI systems that consider individual driver abilities and preferences is encouraged.
