In order to make the ITS community aware of the CVIS concept and demonstrate its capabilities, the EU-supported CVIS Integrated Project is launching an Application Submission Contest (ASC). During the contest the most promising applications will be selected and the winning teams will be given support to develop and demonstrate their applications in cooperative systems test beds in Germany, France, Italy, UK, Sweden, Netherlands and Belgium.
The contest is set up in a way that allows the participants to avoid major expenses until they have been informed that they are among the winners and will receive financial support to carry out final development and demonstrate their applications.
The winning candidates will be announced at the ITS World Congress in Stockholm in September 2009. Contest prizes are as follows:
Gold Medal: €25,000 (£22,400)
Silver Medal: €15,000 (£13,400)
Bronze medal: €10,000 (£9,000)
The ASC is a competitive call open to all potential Europe-based public, private and individual companies that are ready to develop CVIS compliant applications.
