Brief Description of Requirement

The Centre for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CCAV) has three key aims: ensuring safety and security of self-driving technology, securing the industrial and economic benefits of self-driving technology and delivering societal benefits of self-driving technology. There are many challenges and outcomes that must be realised to achieve these aims including technology and infrastructure development, legislative and regulatory change. However, public understanding and acceptability of the technology is required if we are to ensure that connected and automated mobility (CAM) matches end user needs, has a market and can be integrated within future transport networks.

CCAV's social and behavioural research programme aims to address these and has three overarching aims:

- Understand the needs and concerns of end users and public perceptions of CAM
- Identify and embed these into the design of CAM technologies and services
- Improve public awareness, knowledge and understanding of the technologies and expected behaviours
