V2V in the archive

The archive holds 9 reports filed under V2V, spanning 2014–2017. The earliest is “Driving Management Systems (DMS)”; the most recent is “Renesas, eTrans Systems Partner Up to Debut Connected Parking App at CES 2017”. Original reporting came via eTrans Systems, Burney Simpson, Property Casualty 360.

This period matters for a specific reason: it is when the industry's assumptions were set. Testing permits were first issued, the acquisitions that consolidated the perception layer closed, the regulatory frameworks still in force were drafted, and a great many confident deployment dates were published. Almost all of those dates passed without incident, which makes the contemporaneous record more useful now than it was at the time — it can be read against what actually happened.

Coverage under V2V overlaps most often with Connected Vehicle, Technology, V2I and Safety, which is a reasonable map of where the topic sat in the industry's attention.

For what the listed companies in this field did over the same period, the D20 index roster tracks the corporate side. For what has since been deployed on public roads, the deployment tracker records operators, cities and dates, and the research library holds the papers this reporting drew on.
