President, Thai ITS Association (ITS Thailand)

If we wish to have CAV in Thailand…• What are obstacles?

• How can we overcome those obstacles?

• Can we make it to improve safety?

• What should be business model?

Agenda

Why is Thailand interested in CAV?

Obstacles of CAV in Thailand

• No clear and strong policy direction on CAV development

• Existing practices do not favor CAV development• Fragmented “silo” work approach, not much integration

• Technical capability

• Stakeholder collaboration

Can we make it to improve safety?

• Connected vehicle can improve safety in many ways

• Start to see evidence in other countries

• Thailand does not have full implementation; however, improved safety is expected

• Automated vehicle has not been trialed in Thailand; yet high potential for improved safety

Applications : Safety

Self-Driving Technologies in Use• Collision avoidance

Radar-, laser-, or camera-based systems that warn drivers of an impending collision using lights, noises or other cues. Some systems can recognize a person straying into the road. If the driver ignores the warnings, some systems can apply the brakes.

1. Government or Private interest?

1. Global interest -- PPP

2. Developed under one organization

2. Coordination among organizations

3. Domestic Research and Development/Effective Deployment

3. “buy” technologies

4. Individual technology4. Integrated under ITS

architecture and deploy ITS Standard
