Projects in mobility

The project explores how voice-based AI agents can improve truck drivers’ understanding and use of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Through prototype development and user testing, solutions are designed that enhance traffic safety, usability, and user acceptance.

Across the country, there are villages and small towns where a state-owned road passes through. These are places where walking and cycling are not the obvious choices, and solutions to address the shortcomings are out of reach. The "Village Road for Movement" initiative aims to explore the potential for innovative solutions t

Regional public transport authorities in Sweden are striving to broaden their role. A central element of this is the integration of public transport and cycling.

The project is a system demonstrator within FFI and focuses on testing the potential of HCT vehicles in urban traffic, both with conventional combustion engines and BEV trucks, in order to improve energy and transport efficiency and contribute to a more sustainable urban environment with fewer heavy vehicles. for the same transport mission.

Sustainable micromobility, Reduced travel consumption, Data-driven urban planning

Scenarios are analyzed for how the Swedish road freight transport sector can contribute to achieving Swedish climate goals, as well as how the resilience of the transport system develops for these scenarios. A dynamic energy system model is used in the analysis together with input from workshops and dialogue meetings with relevant stakeholders.

This project explored and demonstrated how wireless communication and interaction design can enhance safety for cyclists. The project designed and tested two prototypes and a user interface with sound and vibrations that can be integrated into a bicycle helmet.

This project examines and demonstrates how sound interaction and digitalization can improve accessibility and user experience of shared mobility services. The aim is to increase traffic safety, efficiency, and utilization of the services regardless of individual conditions.

EU-RAIL is a large European collaboration for a better railway system. Within sub-project "FP1 Motional", RISE contributes with research into usability aspects within timetable optimization, planning of marshalling yards and traffic controllers handling of driver advisory systems.

New mobility services can contribute to the transition to a climate-smart society but require adaptations and new norms. 

One of the central factors in promoting the use of micromobility is offering properly designed physical and digital infrastructures that actively support users and allow positive use experiences. 

R2DATO, a flagship project within Europe's Rail Joint Undertaking, strives to integrate digitalisation and automation into European rail networks, breaking interoperability barriers for enhanced efficiency and capacity. Within the project, RISE focuses on upgrading Swedish railways with innovative solutions like Virtually Coupled Train Sets (VCTS).

The project will develop, test and evaluate a digital ridesharing service for business trips

Through the policy lab, Swedish players can increase their knowledge of how existing regulations support and hinder the market introduction of new technology and services within Drive Sweden's areas of ​​interest. Together, we raise specific issues and solutions to existing challenges.

The project aims to leverage big data analysis to identify the correlations between shared micromobility, transit, and other modes of transport in various urban contexts. By combining the results with user behavior models, the project will develop planning and optimization methods for multimodal mobility solutions that integrate micromobility.

Mobility services that reduce car use and make space for more housing, more greenery and a better living environment in car-dominated residential areas
