V2X FlexStack

Description

With the rapid adoption of V2X technology and the growth of urbanization, the demand for advanced V2X software solutions is expected to surge. The V2X FlexStack  addresses this need by providing a flexible, cost-effective solution tailored to accelerate the development of V2X applications. Designed to support researchers and industry professionals, this kit streamlines the process of building and testing proof-of-concept and prototype applications, making it an ideal tool for those seeking faster, more scalable V2X solutions.

The V2X FlexStack  is a powerful software tool built to simplify and speed up the development of proof of concept and prototype applications in Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) communication. Leveraging Python, this kit offers an accessible and agile alternative to traditional C or C++ stacks, significantly reducing the time and complexity required for development. Designed with scalability and ease of integration in mind, the V2X Stack allows companies and researchers to cut down on development times and bring innovative V2X solutions to life more efficiently.

Key Features

  • ETSI C-ITS Protocol Stack: Full software implementation of the ETSI Cooperative ITS protocol stack (all layers except physical), ensuring compliance with European standards for intelligent transport systems.
  • Python-Based Design: Built with Python for enhanced accessibility, allowing developers to create applications with a gentler learning curve and faster iteration than traditional C or C++.
  • Modular and Scalable: The toolset offers a flexible and scalable approach, ideal for small deployments, testing environments, and demonstrations, with no dependency on specific hardware.
  • Interoperability: Supports a variety of chipsets and embedded systems, making it compatible with major vendors such as Cohda or Commsignia.
  • Secure and Robust: Tested in relevant environments like CARAMEL and PLEDGER projects, the kit has demonstrated high security and reliability in scenarios such as collision warnings and attack resilience.
  • Cost-Effective: The V2X FlexStack is an open and flexible software architecture that enables rapid deployment without requiring a proprietary stack or specific hardware, making it an affordable solution for organisations with limited budgets.
  • Development-Ready Compatibility: Optimised for fast prototype creation, the kit allows users to implement complex use cases, such as collective perception management, quickly and easily.

Use Cases

The V2X FlexStack  has already proven successful in a variety of innovative applications, including:

  1. Collective Perception Management: Enables real-time alert systems by aggregating data from multiple sources to improve traffic safety and efficiency in urban settings.
  2. Automated Toll Payments: Serves as the backbone for an automated toll payment system using V2X communication, simplifying transactions and enhancing the user experience in toll areas.
  3. Vulnerable Road User (VRU) Warning System: In collaboration with Mercabarna, the kit was used to develop a prototype that alerts drivers to the presence of VRUs near factory exits, enhancing safety in industrial zones.

Why Choose the V2X Stack?

The V2X FlexStack is the optimal choice for companies and researchers looking to save time and streamline the development of V2X applications. Its Python-based structure and scalable architecture provide an efficient, flexible, and user-friendly tool for rapid development of proof-of-concepts and prototypes. Additionally, with future compatibility planned for HSMs, the platform will offer even greater security and reliability for commercial applications.

Compared to other solutions, the V2X FlexStack offers a more accessible and up-to-date toolset. Its Python-based framework ensures ease of use without compromising on performance, making it ideal for fast prototyping while maintaining interoperability with a wide range of hardware platforms.
