Darmstadt, 2021/02/26. The annual conference "Bad Roads Well Built" held by the Institute for Road and Pavement Engineering at TU Darmstadt took place this year as an online event due to the coronavirus. Our proving ground expert Rainer Staron presented the topic "Traffic Control for Proving Grounds - Interaction between Traffic Control and Infrastructure" in front of about 140 connected participants. In his lecture he discussed future challenges in the construction and operation of proving grounds for the automotive and its supplier industry.
To enable the effectively interaction between the Proving Ground Management System (PGMS) with infrastructure systems such as barriers, variable traffic signs, weather stations, etc., framework conditions must be observed. This applies to existing infrastructure, but also to future systems that will not be planned until later. Based on his long-standing experience in managing a well-known proving ground, Rainer recommends taking future-proof precautions for the operation as early as the planning and construction phase.
His presentation is available on request.
PGMS-Modules
We thank you for your trust in us and look forward to our further cooperation in the new year.
Merry Christmas and all the best for the year 2021!
Our colleague Ferdinand's puppies are also looking forward to Christmas.
Instead of sending Christmas cards: This year we are supporting the project “Der Wünschewagen – Letzte Wünsche wagen”
- a honorary project of the ASB Baden-Württemberg e.V. which helps to fulfill the last wish of ill people of all ages.
Since implementation of mm-lab’s Proving Ground Management System (PGMS) at Bosch‘s proving grounds worldwide mm-lab also provides technical support. Recently PGMS was comprehensively updated providing new features. In addition the automotive supplier prolonged the support contract for another 3 years.
PGMS improves safety and efficiency at Bosch’s automotive proving grounds. On peak days up to 200 vehicles are equipped with mm-lab’s On-Board Units (OBU). The OBUs succeeded as a fully adequate replacement for the formerly used radios. They ensure a reliable hands-free voice communication even at high speeds resulting in a significant higher safety for drivers.
PGMS offers many features to organize and manage processes at proving grounds. The system leads through all workflows relevant for operation. Booking of resources, access control and monitoring of vehicles are basic features of PGMS. An integrated web portal allows drivers to register and book in advance. Hence the administrative procedures on-site are speeded-up. The upgrade designed for Bosch augments the system with useful features as individual risk assessments, a web-based training and the management of driver qualification licences.
