Invitation to participate in the Joint Tests
 
 
The N11, situated near Rijnwoude (between Alphen aan den Rijn and Zoeterwoude), is currently under construction. Part of this new road, including the slip roads and the surrounding area, will be used in June 1998 for the demonstration of AVG applications.
 
A Six kilometres of the new N11 form the main demo site. This protected site will be used to demonstrate AVG techniques employed at high speeds.

B A slow demo trajectory is being set up on the future access road on the N11. This is a lane measuring approximately half a kilometre, with a right angle and terminus loops at both ends. The Praxis and FROG technologies will in any event be demonstrated between two platforms specially set up for the occasion.

C The exit road of the N11 will be set up for smaller-scale demonstrations. In a few minutes’ time, visitors to the AVG demo project will be able to experience a ride on a 400 metre-long lane in an automated guided vehicle.

D The mixed traffic demo will be a demonstration in ‘real’ traffic of AVG techniques which can already be used on public roads. The starting point for this demonstration will be where the N11 intersects the N209, a national trunk road already in use. The demonstration will primarily involve Adaptive Cruise Control.

E Finally, an off the road demonstration will be given alongside the test roads. The Dutch unmanned defence vehicle, MoonCat, and a French counterpart will be displayed here.

Both soon-to-be-available AVG applications and future visions of AVG applications will be demonstrated during the demo project in June. These involve systems which can be used in cargo transportation, passenger travel and public transport.

F In addition to attending various demonstrations, visitors will be able to visit a comprehensive exhibit about AVG. They’ll also be able to participate in group discussions.
