Several representatives of EDI are participating in the 5G-ROUTES project partner and reviewer meeting in Riga from May 12th-13th. The aim of the project is to develop 5G communication solutions for cooperative traffic, logistics and passenger entertainment applications that operate seamlessly even when crossing country borders. EDI’s role in the project, together with other partners, is to develop solutions that demonstrate cooperative self-driving car use-cases, to improve road traffic flow, safety, and passenger comfort.

In this face-to-face event, the 5G-ROUTES project partners and the European Commission's reviewers discuss and evaluate the results of all work packages. The event also showcases the technical achievements of several partners, including EDI, who demonstrate a 5G-based synchronized driving scenario on the Bikernieki racetrack, using two electric vehicles.
