Una bulliciosa escena urbana en el área industrial 'Zona Franca' de Barcelona, ​​donde la 'Carrer 3' se transforma en un campo de pruebas de alta tecnología para 'vehículos conectados'. En primer plano, un elegante vehículo futurista, equipado con sensores avanzados y antenas, está estacionado estratégicamente en el asfalto, su cuerpo brilla bajo el sol de la mañana. Alrededor del vehículo, varios técnicos en 'chalecos de seguridad' y 'cascos' están observando intensamente datos sobre dispositivos portátiles, mostrando una atmósfera de colaboración e innovación. El fondo presenta dos rotondas en las intersecciones de 'Carrer A' y 'Carrer B', forradas con 'conos de tráfico' y 'barreras' para delinear el área de prueba. Una serie de 'antenas 5G' se montan en postes cercanos, simbolizando la tecnología de vanguardia que se está empleando. El aire está lleno de un sentido de propósito a medida que pasan los automóviles, algunos de los cuales también están equipados con tecnología para comunicarse con la infraestr

A step forward in smart mobility

The Zona Franca Consortium of Barcelona (CZFB) has started an exciting project to establish a pioneering laboratory in connected driving. This initiative seeks to create a suitable environment for experimentation with the aim of improving both urban mobility and road safety.

3: an innovative test stage

Recently, 3 street in the Zona Franca industrial estate has become a testing laboratory for connected vehicles. In this space, trials have been performed in a real traffic environment, which have allowed to verify the operation of the devices installed and validate the coverage of the 5G network.

The importance of vehicle-infrastuctura communication

The laboratory not only focuses on technology, but also investigates how vehicles can exchange information with road infrastructure. This communication is essential for increasing security and improving traffic flow.

5G and C-V2X technology: Mobility allies

Communication technologies, such as the 5G and the C-V2X system, play an essential role in this project. They ensure rapid and reliable transmission of data between vehicles and infrastructure, thus improving traffic coordination and reducing the risk of accidents.

Benefits for the Community

Through this innovation, a decrease in traffic congestion and an improvement in the interaction between vehicles and infrastructure is expected, thus contributing to a safer environment for all road users.

CZFB’s future vision

Pere Navarro, a special state delegate in the CZFB, emphasized that this laboratory represents a breakthrough in smart mobility. He explained that automatic messages generated from various sources of data help drivers make informed decisions, thus improving road safety.

Commitment to sustainability

Navarro also emphasized that the 4.0 district is the ideal setting for the development of these types of projects, as it promotes the use of technologies that can contribute to more sustainable transport.

Leadership in digital transformation

Blanca Sorigué, CEO of CZFB, has said that the 4.0 district is a nucleus of innovation that seeks to lead the digital transformation of the industry. The connected smart driving laboratory is an example of the consortium’s commitment to build a more efficient and environmentally friendly future.
