- This paper discusses the status and first results achieved in TeleFOT (Field Operational Tests of Aftermarket and nomadic Devices in vehicles), a Large Scale European research project within the 7th Framework Programme. The project aims at assessing the impacts of driver support functions on the driving task via Field Operational Tests (FOT), involving large fleets of test drivers in real-life driving conditions across Europe. Up to 3000 drivers are involved in the tests, which are organized in three test communities in Northern (Finland, Sweden), Central (Germany, UK, France) and Southern (Greece, Italy, Spain) Europe. The TeleFOT FOTs are planned in two phases: first, long term testing will involve a large number of vehicles testing drivers using mature functions provided to the driver on an aftermarket or nomadic device platform and in real-life driving conditions. In the second phase, detailed testing to support the interpretation of the results from the large scale tests will be carried out with a limited number of subjects driving instrumented cars. The TeleFOT's scientific and technological objectives include studying different levels of impacts on drivers and society, including usability and user acceptance, safety, efficiency, mobility and socio-economic impacts on the transport system. The paper presents the impact areas studied in TeleFOT as well as a description of the Field Operational Tests carried out in TeleFOT, and it concludes with the main achievements, results and lessons learned so far in the project mainly leaning on some first results from the pilot test phase.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper presents the European Large Scale Collaborative Project TeleFOT, describing its status and its first results. The paper is structured into two main sections: The first paragraph briefly introduces the justification and core elements of TeleFOT, showing the scope and primary objectives of the project. Significant research and development in Europe in recent years have been focusing on Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS), since they are contributing to a change in mobility. The number of devices supporting transportation is increasing. In particular, the market penetration of aftermarket nomadic devices as personal navigation devices (PND) or smart phones is growing exponentially according to the market trends, but no scientific evidence of impacts directly related to the use of aftermarket and nomadic devices in vehicle exist yet. Therefore there is a need to test via Field Operational Tests (FOT) the impacts of driver support functions on the driving task, including future interactive traffic services that will become part of driving environment systems. The second paragraph of this paper illustrates the Field Operational Tests to be conducted in TeleFOT and progress reached so far in the project. These include (but are not limited to) large scale test sites in 8 member states, FOT framework creation, benchmarking, piloting and data analysis planning.
