Research seminar program:

The seminar will introduce the VLC concept focusing on its use in communication-based vehicle safety applications.
- The first part of the seminar will focus on the issues associated with traffic accidents and their impact on human society.
- Next, it will introduce the VLC concept as a possible solution to this problem.
- Then, it will debate the requirements imposed for such applications and the challenges associated with the use of the VLC technology in communication-based vehicle safety applications.
- The seminar will continue with the technical presentation of some of the most relevant vehicular VLC systems and applications, emphasizing the manner in which some of the associated challenges have been addressed by the scientific community.
- Last but not least, the seminar will debate the perspectives in automotive VLC use.
