It's a comprehensive technology system that will monitor the driving habits of your young motorist and help to keep them safe.

Michigan Begins Construction on Self-Driving Vehicle Test Facility

OKEMOS, Mich., –– State of Michigan officials have officially begun construction on a new self-driving vehicle test facility in Willow Run on the old grounds of the famed Arsenal of Democracy factory during World War II. The nonprofit, American Center for Mobility (ACM) will serve as a national proving ground for connected and autonomous vehicles designed for research, education, testing, standards-convening, product development, validation and self-certification.

Michigan Begins Construction on Self-Driving Vehicle Test Facility

Automakers are excited to use the facility now, as John Maddox, ACM’s CEO, claims to have received 45 letters of support from OEMs, major suppliers, and others who are interested in using the facility. General Motors, Ford and Toyota have all expressed enthusiasm for the project, and the engineering group SAE International has already signed a memorandum of understanding to use the facility in hopes of creating and evaluating standards for new transportation technology.

A portion of the facility will be dedicated to highway-style testing of self-driving vehicles, and is expected to open as early as December 2017. While other portions of the proving ground are to become operational in gradual phases. Parts of the highway loop will incorporate the use of public roads, and a 700-foot curved tunnel will be built as part of the test track.

Michigan Begins Construction on Self-Driving Vehicle Test Facility

With construction now underway, ACM leadership will turn to determining exactly how future users will want to collect data from the sensors and cameras installed in the infrastructure. They’ll also need to figure out how much they want to share with other manufacturers and how much will remain proprietary. Long-term plans for the facility include building a national cybersecurity research center, where the defenses of connected cars and smart infrastructure such as traffic lights can be tested and fortified. Examining the role of dedicated short-range communications and future 5G networks will be part of those plans.

Michigan Begins Construction on Self-Driving Vehicle Test Facility

Michigan's government leaders have begun construction on a self-driving vehicle test facility where a factory once stood that built B-24 bombers at the rate of a plane per hour. Officials hope that the facility will ensure the state stays relevant in the auto industry for decades to come.
