The integrated solution enables vehicles to communicate directly with tolling infrastructure, allowing frictionless toll transactions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The demonstration will feature a Valeo autonomous vehicle equipped with Valeo\u2019s Cellular-V2X (C-V2X) onboard unit. As the vehicle approaches a tolling point, it initiates automatically a secure toll transaction through a direct communication message exchange with a Kapsch roadside unit (RSU).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis is a landmark step toward integrating connected vehicle technologies with existing ADAS and interior experience features.\u201d&nbsp;said Jeffrey Shay, President of Valeo North America.&nbsp;\u201cTogether with Kapsch, we are creating a truly seamless experience for drivers and paving the way for a new ecosystem of connected services.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The V2X-based approach offers significant advantages over current systems. For tolling agencies, it offers a progressive technology strategy \u2013 layering secure connectivity onto existing roads to lower operational costs. For consumers, it offers a unified, interoperable system where tolling, payment information, and transaction status are displayed directly on the vehicle\u2019s in-dash display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith V2X technology, we are entering the era where the vehicle itself is the payment device,\u201d&nbsp;said JB Kendrick, President of Kapsch TrafficCom North America.&nbsp;\u201cThis collaboration with Valeo proves that by adhering to open standards like SAE J3217, we can establish the platform that connects automotive innovation with roadside infrastructure.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Valeo, a global leader in automotive technology, and Kapsch TrafficCom, a leading global provider of transportation solutions, announced a strategic partnership to develop and demonstrate a real-time, secure, seamless and automated vehicle-to-everything (V2X) tolling solution.
