Bosch has joined forces with a number of other suppliers, automakers and public-sector partners to launch the “cooperative highly automated driving” (Ko-HAF) research initiative, which aims to push forward the development of automated driving.
The publicly-funded project will tackle the challenges of highly-automated driving, in which drivers no longer need to be constantly vigilant.

"Highly automated vehicles rely on information about their surroundings – information which supplements the data collected by their own sensors," said Dieter Rödder, head of the future mobility systems unit at Bosch's corporate research and advance engineering.
Within the framework of the Ko-HAF project, Bosch has assumed primary responsibility for developing a back-end solution for collecting and making available such information about a vehicle's current surroundings, including the traffic infrastructure.
